CORONAVIRUS NURSING HOME DEATHS IN WASHINGTON STATE.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

The coronavirus  is here: Two Scenarios folks: There is a report of nine deaths in the state of Washington so far. The virus hit a nursing home in the King County area accounting  for many of the corona virus  illnesses. I would suggest that the CDC and local Health Department do due diligence while tracing the origin of the virus and closely check the the status of the employees working at the facility who are of foreign descent and/or illegal.

It is no secret and a common practice of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, etc. to hire illegal workers, usually from Asian and Pacific Rim countries. And it has been reported over the years that these low paid workers in these facilities make many mistakes and do not  follow health department protocols. I would venture to say that there is a probability that the corona virus in the nursing home originated in this manner.

The CDC and Health department should check carefully, the nursing home employees relatives and family members at their  residences. They should verify if any family members of any foreign/illegal employees have been out of the United States recently. If so, chances are if those family members were visiting another country they may have contracted the coronavirus and then passed it on to the employee,who then went to work and  exposed the frail patients being cared for to the deadly virus.

Scenario Number Two: Check and trace the status of any family visitors of the patients who are foreign born, or holds illegal status. There is the possibility that  the family member who might be infected with the virus visited the patient and exposed the patient to the virus. I submit it is worth the effort by the CDC and Health Department so they can either in or out the virus origin transmission.
And, that is my opinion. I suggest you consider and come to your own conclusions. You decide.
