This week's
Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "
Lucky."
I'm hoping I and everyone I care about has the luck of the Irish and remains healthy as the coronavirus / covid-19 situation worsens here in the United States. The illness and resultant panic buying is very distressing.
With only 22 cases of covid-19 / coronavirus in Connecticut, State and Local Government officials have stopped informing us of what towns the people who tested positive live in. Most likely because of misleading or outright false information that they told us only one week ago, when cases first started occurring here:
On March 13, Connecticut had 11 cases and State and Local Government officials informed us of
what towns they lived in.
On March 14, we were up to 22 cases, and officials said they would no longer tell us what towns people were in, despite the fact that New York continued to do that during their early days, when they had even more cases than 22.
And coincidentally, Connecticut officials' refusal to continue disclosing location information to us followed a report on March 11 of
14 out of 40 people in Westport who were being tested for "flu-like" symptoms who had been exposed to someone with NO SYMPTOMS who later tested positive for covid-19 / coronavirus after leaving the US. Did some / all of those 14 people in Westport test positive, and Connecticut officials don't want to tell us that, because back on March 7, after two hospital employees tested positive, one Connecticut hospital assured us that when the employees were working at the hospitals, "the [employee]
displayed no symptoms associated with COVID-19, and as a result — and
this is very important — the [employee] contact here during that time
does not constitute an exposure." If that was true, how did anyone at the
party in Westport contract covid-19 from someone who later tested positive but allegedly at the time of the party displayed no symptoms?
I created this using GIMP 2.10.14.
