This is from a few hours ago and has some details. Stay safe!

34. Near Outagamie County

[woodsprite]

3. Seven of the 8 total cases so far in DE came from where I work.

Which is less than 2 miles from home. All are from our county.

[dweller]

4. in chapel hill

thankfully it's in the grey zone
😳

✌🏼

[Green Line]

5. Essex County MA

6 cases

[GopherGal]

38. Middlesex: 83 (n/t)

[Green Line]

46. Middlesex has the most in the state

[getagrip_already]

57. Most originated from one biotech conf...

Something like 72 cases from a single Biogen meeting.

[Blaukraut]

47. Same, but it's 8 cases now n/t

[getagrip_already]

58. 5 in worc county.....

[Marrah_Goodman]

I live in RI, but I am riding it out at my bfs house in peabody.

[handmade34]

6. interesting map

out of the zone

the virus is afraid of the snow and the bears but we're still sheltering in place

[Roland99]

7. 3 cases in my county

[Aquaria]

8. San Antonio

We don't know how many people got exposed to the idiot who went to the fricking mall, but had a test taken before being released from quarantine come back positive. But we have multiple cases here now. Had a doctor test positive just today:

https://www.kens5.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/doctor-tests-positive-for-coronavirus-in-san-antonio/273-8d7ebc8c-deb5-4268-ad14-903e02109501

Only complete fucking morons release someone before getting back every single test result. Thanks, Lackland!

[hamsterjill]

63. And the USAA case.

Don’t forget that one.

Stay safe!

[SammyWinstonJack]

71. My son works at the Applebees close to the mall. So far he's fine

[mahina]

So we have no idea yet

[ecstatic]

13. Sacramento County

33 confirmed, 2 deaths

[Brother Buzz]

39. I'm over in Solano County, once the epicenter....

and our numbers inexplicably increased by only one: 7 confirmed, 0 deaths.

I'm guessing population density may have a lot to do with it. That, or we communicate like farmers who tend to stand ten feet apart and holler at each other over their idling tractors.

[Raine]

If you allow the site to access your position, you get specific information like that above.

22. King Co Washington...nt

[Celerity]

23. it is starting to run riot here in Sweden and our national government officials are fools on this

Think reverso world Trump

denialists due to OTT PC all tied up with immigration/refugee politics

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

33. I have been reading a Norwegian newspaper on-line (Aftenposten)

and they can't figure out why Sweden won't close the schools. Norway has freaked out and has closed everything.

[Celerity]

45. Denmark, Norway, and Finland have looked on with a bit of horror for years at Sweden over

our immigration/refugee policies. Especially Denmark. I have posted on this a lot in the past.

Now about COVID-19:

I am in probably the most fucked up EU nation (Sweden) in terms of how they are dealing with COVID-19. Our fucking government is paralysed by fear of action (so typically Swedish there, lol) and thus listening to fucking IDIOT epidemiologists and top level health ministers who have huge social agenda conflicts (they are rabid far Left Wing apologists for the disastrous immigration/refugee policies that were in effect until 2016 and helped to fuel the rise of the far right white nationalist Sweden Democrats scum to surge in numbers in the Riksdag, our parliament) and are doing EVERYTHING possible to keep the entire country OPEN. They also, like Trump, are trying to stop all testing.

They do not want to admit there is anything going on now, as they ridiculed all the other EU nations who closed down as racists and reactionary for weeks now!

You would have to live here to truly understand how delusional and willing to outright lie and suppress info that some are here, and it always involves immigration in one way or another.

The closest I can come to describing it is take Trump, make his number one priority to bring in 50 million (population adjusted for the US that is how many refugees Sweden has taken in over the past 17 or so years.) refugees into the US and then do ANYTHING to justify it, anything to cover up any systemic issues, use ANY tactics to quash dissent (including the outlawing of speech that is critical of Trump and the government for his 50 million refugees), bully and intimidate the press with the police, lie hundreds of times, cover up (via top level police lies and top level police covertly threatening the press like common gangsters) insanely brutal crimes systematically done by gangs of refugees, and then he, Trump would say if possible, he hopes to bring in 50 MILLION MORE.

Now, mix that all up with COVID-19 pandemic, invent a meme that makes it racist (I am multiracial part black btw) to want testing and to want workplaces and schools to shut, and you have Sweden atm. I wish I were joking, but alas, I am actually UNDER describing the outright lunacy here.

One the worst assholes is our State epidemiologist Dr. Anders Tegnell. He has been HORRIFIC with misinformation, disinformation, straight up lies, bullshit normative scolding and completely baiting most other EU nations. He has laughed at people who said it (I am NOT joking on all that follows) was contagious. He said Norway, Denmark, Germany etc etc were all racists for closing down. He publically tried to shame the CEO of Spotify and all the Spotify workers on state radion for closing down and ordering the workers to telecommute. He calls people who want to shut the the schools racist and fear-mongers, and that the schools need to stay open so that immigrants do not have to go and stay at home. He called people who did not want to go out and shop or dine at restaurants cowards and SD (the far right Sweden Democrats) enablers. He said for weeks that it was basically IMPOSSIBLE to catch CPVID-19 and it would all go away in a few days to week (see, I did say reverso-world Trump). He is a fucking lunatic!!! I hope he is brought up on criminal charges after this is all done. He has probably killed hundreds if not thousands alone by himself. The most mild-mannered of many of my Swedish friends (and when I say mild-mannered in a Swedish setting I mean MILD MANNERED, lol) are raging about this fuckstick.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

53. Wow! I had no idea Sweden had gone off the rails like that.

From what I've been reading in the Norwegian press (I can read Norwegian, more or less, but Swedish confuses me), they've closed down everything - but Sweden has made it sort of optional. The Øresund bridge is apparently restricted only on the Danish side (you can't get into Denmark but apparently you can get into Sweden). It's bizarre that they'd consider closing down for the virus to be racist or cowardly. I hope you will be OK!

[Celerity]

60. All my post-grad meetings have been cancelled and I am doing most of my work online, plus I am

telecommuting for my consultant job. I was over in HK (Hong Kong) back in late November to mid-December and heard a lot about the 'new¨Sars' via on-the-ground sources via my firm. I had NO idea it would blow up this big, but based on our work over there, and a lot of our other consultants globally, my firm went to a hard short stance in mid January in regards to many of their positions, so they are doing quite well in the markets atm, especially the past several weeks.

My father (he is Swedish, but has lived in London for well over 2 decades on and off) has been a big proponent of a Nordic superstate (he likes the name Nordica) for ages (Sweden, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Greenland, Faroe Islands, Åland Islands, Svalbard.) It would have combined the best of all our cultures and strengths, but Sweden's immigration policy has put paid any hopes for that, I am afraid, for now, and probably for good. That and Norway doesn't want to share their oil revenues! A damn shame as we would have had around 30 (WELL over that by the time it happened, probably 35 or so) million people, a HUGE GDP (for its size) insane combined natural resources and wealth, and a global powerhouse on almost every front and level, including quality of life and governance and wealth equality. We also would have had (perhaps) our own currency which would be partially backed by gold, silver and natural resources components, so only semi-fiat, and thus far less likely to be manipulated via FOREX shenanigans.

[uppityperson]

24. Yup. Waiting for the next 10 days, day by day.

Trying to get decent sleep but not doing well.

[Lisa0825]

26. 'You are in the Galveston County, TX infection zone with 1 confirmed case' nt

[lunasun]

28. Chicago :(

[MaryMagdaline]

29. Broward County 39 cases

[Alex4Martinez]

30. I am ordered to shelter in place.

Which sounds like a very strong warning for our county, one of seven California counties at this hour with the order.

[choie]

31. NY City

463 cases; 7 deaths.

[Clash City Rocker]

32. 6 infections in my county, and a coworker of my wife has already died from it

It’s going to get real for all of us.

[mnhtnbb]

72. Oh, no!That is so terrible.

Was the co worker in a high risk group?

[Clash City Rocker]

73. She was about 60, no health issues we know of

[LovingA2andMI]

78. WOW...

So sorry.....

[A Brand New World]

35. Pend O'Reille Co. WA

Closest is 10 miles away in Spokane Co.

[Under The Radar]

36. Just got our 1st confirmation in a city of 100k

Thought that there would be a chance that it would miss us, but the areas have been growing closer each day...didn’t even know that we had testing.
Double Pneumonia nearly got me two years ago and cardio hasn’t recovered fully since then either....oh well, it is what it is.

[Glorfindel]

37. I'm in the southern Appalachians, about halfway between

Atlanta, GA, and Chattanooga, TN. No cases nearby. I'm sheltering in place, but I pretty much do that all the time anyway.

[Fla_Democrat]

40. 65 miles away

[frazzled]

41. I'm in the red zone (101+)

But is the map completely accurate. The city of Chicago is red. But there are other yellow and orange spots around the state. The last numbers I’ve seen are 105 for the entire state. It doesn’t add up. Of course, maybe it’s increasing by the hour.

Whatever it is, it doesn’t look good in the big cities.

[Kali]

42. from the site - 19 miles away but reality it is more like 50

[Snarkoleptic]

43. NW Chicago exurbs.

n/t

[mecherosegarden]

44. Tulare County

3 confirmed cases, 73 individuals under self-quarantine.

[mommymarine2003]

48. Confirmed zone here.

Two cases and one death in the Portland, Oregon area where I live. Two of my 3 kids live in the Seattle area, and I was up there two weeks ago. My daughter has health issues, and she is very scared. Her husband works in a care center with a large ventilator wing, and it is extremely stressful for him. My daughter is worried that he will get sick and bring it home to her. My husband and I are venturing out for groceries and other errands tomorrow; otherwise, we are staying home. My husband, my youngest son, and his 6-year-old son are all asthmatics. My middle child, a disabled Marine, has a new baby, his first child. I know he is worried about his health. My kids are calling me more often. I think everyone is feeling very vulnerable.

[intheflow]

49. Springfield, MA. One case in my county but

as of two days ago my fully-insured son couldn't get a covid-19 test even though he'd had a temperature through the roof and they ended up diagnosing him with pneumonia. Which is an outcome of covid-19, but whatever. They had to save the 10 kits in the whole hospital for if actual dying people came in, so I have no idea what the real number is.

[customerserviceguy]

50. I'm in one, but

my zone is very large, and includes Charleston, SC, which is an hour and a half away. Also the zone has one reported infection, that is a staff member at the MUSC hospital in Chucktown who got it from Italy, and self-quarantined immediately upon getting back to the US, never went in to infect anyone else she would have worked with.

Don't get me wrong, I do absolutely feel that this will spread throughout the country, but at this point, the map seems a bit too alarmist.

[grantcart]

51. No transmission cases in the county I am currently in

2 cases considered assumptive based on symptoms. They came from another state and moved to another county.

[wendyb-NC]

52. Eastern NC,

about 45 minutes from Raleigh. Living in and surrounded by counties reporting 1 or so cases.

[KBlagburn]

54. North Alabama

[Codeine]

55. 15 cases, 2 deaths in Riverside County, CA. nt

[dware]

56. Considering I'm a long haul truck driver,

I'm in and out of the hot zones, so far, no symptoms. (knock on wood)

[Meowmee]

61. 74 cases and 2 deaths here, both in hospitals nearby nt

[liberalmuse]

62. A few miles away from ground zero.

[Brainfodder]

65. Clark County - NV 35 cases now.

Good Luck!

[Squinch]

66. Gracious. Look how red that is.

[JCMach1]

67. Collin County, TX... Closest case about 3 miles from home

[whistler162]

68. Onondaga Co with 2 at the moment

but since the first one was a woman who wasn't known to travel outside of the area and the second one her husband likely many more. Go into one of the schools I work in today and see what the plan for us non-instructional staff is. Then Thursday, or before, find out about the other district and hopefully my state agency gets its act together and lets us remote staff know what they want.

[Dorian Gray]

69. We live in NYC

And, of course, we have a lot of cases.

But we live in Kings Co. (Brooklyn), and according to that map, we don't have one confirmed case. Which is comforting, as the spread is less here than in Manhattan.

Also, it's untrue. I know of one confirmed Brooklyn cases. (Local to the Park Slope area.) A parent of a local public school tested positive, which led to a lot of parents in the neighborhood pressuring local principals to shut down even if the DOE didn't.

[SammyWinstonJack]

70. Not in an infection zone. Closest is 41 miles away in Hamilton co. with 1 confirmed.

[WyLoochka]

74. 45 miles 8 new cases

The cases are in a retirement home in Lander WY. Yikes.

[mike_c]

75. Humboldt County, California.

Cases: 1
Deaths: 0

[madamesilverspurs]

76. First death just reported, Weld County CO

[mbusby]

77. Houston...

...and Harris county.

[Laelth]

79. Nice app. Thanks for the link. n/t

-Laelth

[Kaleva]

80. Nearest confirmed case is 167 miles away as the crow flies.

[LovingA2andMI]

81. My God...

The DATA in this link as of 6:45 pm. Is anyone paying attention:

CONFIRMED CASES
6335
↑ 38% (+1736 past 24hr)
DEATHS
106
↑ 23% (+20 past 24hr)
RECOVERED
106
↑ 43% (+32 past 24hr)

Take that number times 30 days=52080

Or in 14 days = 26040

Or in 7 more days =13020

and that is only if the number remains as now.

Take 1736 x 0.15% =4340

x30 Days = 130,200

x 14 Days =65,100

x 7 Days = 32,550

Cannot do the projected deaths as that is too much.

We will be on a nationwide lockdown a week, week and one-half tops with major spread in metro areas across the U.S.

[Alacritous Crier]

82. Only one in...

my county so far.

[ooky]

83. Updated my response today, with our community's first confirmed case

in Greenville, NC.
