I live in Monterey County and for a population of approx. 450,000 -- as of today 5 people have died of Covid and only approx. 1,000 people have even been tested for covid!!I can only speak for myself, but I live in Riverside and I don't know a single person who's gotten tested. That doesn't mean a single person I know has COVID-19, but if I don't know anyone who's gotten tested. I gotta wonder how many people in Riverside potentially have it and don't even know. Obviously they would start to show signs, but there's that multiple week period where a person can have it and show zero symptoms. Definitely makes me not want to leave the house unless it's for a good reason. Your numbers could be spot on, or low. I don't think they're high though, and that's scary to think about.
It is very difficult to get tested, even if you are a medical professional!
My Pulmonologist had to go to Stanford Medical center to get tested! It came back negative! I understand that now you can get tested but to get tested you a;lmost have to have covid......so go figure!!
