Resident at Sun City, HHI tests positive for COVID-19

I think you can say that, it is likely some TUGGERs live almost everywhere COVID-19 either has or will surface.
 
I was thinking about the large communities like The Villages. Can you imagine?
 
When this virus first hit Washington state, residents at the LifeCare Facility in the Seattle area was hit very hard. They were at risk for quite some time before anyone took action. Part of this article https://www.seattletimes.com/seattl...ursing-home-for-weeks-while-response-stalled/ from the Seattle Times from two days ago contains this sobering information:

"Last month, there were 120 residents at Life Care. As of Wednesday, at least 81 have tested positive for the coronavirus and of those, 34 have died, as well as a visitor. About a fourth of the coronavirus fatalities in the U.S. have been linked to the nursing home, according to state and federal data."

The numbers would indicate the Sun City HHI resident who has caught it could be the first of many.

Stay safe, everyone. Social Distancing works.

Sun City is an active community 55+ whereas the others were nursing homes? Am I mistaken?

You're correct. My point is LifeCare is where people who were just "there" were infected by others coming and going. In the case of Sun City, where people are actively out and about, the potential risk of exposure seems like it'd be much greater, since people would interact more readily. The age demographic applies, certainly, and LifeCare residents are generally older.

showing the age breakdown of confirmed cases and fatalities in our state, as of yesterday afternoon. There is no reason to think the numbers wouldn't be similar elsewhere.
