Older or Unhealthy: The first 48 U.S. coronavirus deaths in detail
By Sharyl Attkisson

justthenews.com

As Americans spend their first full day under a presidentially declared national state of emergency, many are wondering about the profile of those who have succumbed to the coronavirus so far.

The number of U.S. deaths has been growing since the first one reported in Washington state on Feb. 29. The victim’s name was not released, nor were details of his circumstances. But officials said he lived in King County, was in his 50s, and had “underlying health conditions.”

As of Friday, the total number of U.S. deaths attributed to coronavirus stood at 48. All but 11 of the deaths were in Washington state.

Of the total deaths reported through March 13, more than half (25) were from the Life Care Center nursing facility in Kirkland, Wash., where a serious outbreak occurred.

U.S. health officials said the early pattern of deaths suggests those most at risk are the elderly and those with more serious health issues like diabetes, lung disease or coronary ailments.

“If you are an elderly person with an underlying condition, if you get infected, the risk of getting into trouble is considerable. So it's our responsibility to protect the vulnerable,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, America's top infectious disease expert, declared recently.

For the latest government information, visit CDC.gov. In the meantime, here are more details on the first 48 U.S. coronavirus deaths.

"If it gets any worse than the news media is portraying it, then will any of it really matter? "

It does to my extended family, all the health care workers in the country.

The press is being totally irresponsible, especially in blue state areas like California

BINGO! ...and they have been irresponsible for 3+ years now. Bogus impeachment. Fake Russian Collusion. Fake obstruction of justice. Allowed lies about Trump Tower meetings. Printed fake leaks. This is the same press and supposed journalists that wanted to give us Avenatti.

The double standards and hypocrisy are mind boggling.

In Italy they don't let the people in except 1 by 1 and thus keeping the stores fairly empty thus matching the fairly short cashier lines.
That said, with each customer having a well filled cart, the cashier time per customer also is quite long, all of which create long entry lines outside the store.
No problem with the currently fair weather, but imagine that turning bad ...
