Comments on: Roane County has a New COVID-19 Case https://clutchmov.com/roane-county-has-a-new-covid-19-case/ Online Magazine for the Mid-Ohio Valley Wed, 22 Apr 2020 00:41:05 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.3.16 By: Jennifer Lee https://clutchmov.com/roane-county-has-a-new-covid-19-case/#comment-1023 Wed, 22 Apr 2020 00:41:05 +0000 http://clutchmov.com/?p=24799#comment-1023 Thanks for the response. I am glad you will consult with the local Health Departments. In the meantime, since the CDC stated on April 3 that presymptomatic people can transmit the virus to others, I’m sure you won’t mind if I contribute comments to that effect. I believe it is entirely reasonable to consider it highly relevant information. Thank you for your efforts to protect the public.

As a community service, we publish press releases from local businesses and area agencies to help share community news. Several releases have mentioned that the virus can be caught from someone without symptoms, but we will consult with our local Health Departments to make sure we are sharing all relevant information. Thank you!

Yes, you catch it from a sick person. But you cannot tell who is sick! The governor of Georgia claimed he was unaware of this, which caused his state to have a comparatively large infection and death toll. This fact means that unless you are living with someone, do not get within 6 feet of them. Period.
