The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have confirmed the first case of Covid-19 in the US that did not come from a foreign visitor or from contact with a known victim. The patient is a resident of Solano County, California. Details are sketchy so far; see “Coronavirus uncontained: First case in U.S. from unknown source is from Bay Area” by Erin Allday in the San Francisco Chronicle.
So much for Trump saying that it’s all under control, huh? Now he’s going to say that it’s all the Democrats’ fault because the first community-spread case was in California. No matter what, Trump will say it’s the Democrats’ fault. And he won’t mention his budget cuts to public health, or his standing down on infectious disease monitoring and control.
