程度の副詞

But as we're kind of getting ourselves started, Surprised, worried that it took this long for Ohio to get a confirmed case with everything that had been kind of unfolding over the last few days and really weeks.

I was kind of grateful it took this long because it gave us enough time to sort of get more prepared for it than the rest of the country when it really hit Seattle.

And, of course, you know, the other thing that really didn't surprise me.

Of course it had to happen right here in kind Hogan County.

Um, so you know, I think when it when it did hit, um, at the same time, we knew it was coming.

And now, now that it's here, I'm kind of grateful, but in a weird sense, that okay, Now everybody knows, and the first thing I want people to understand is now we're going to start seeing numbers, and I don't want people to get frightened by that because one of the reasons we're going to start seeing numbers higher is that we have better testing capabilities and those testing capabilities air going to be a lot faster.

They're going to find out in less than 24 hours whether or not these people are confirmed or not.

And so those numbers are going to go up if the if we are having more confirmed cases.

So I don't want people to be panicky about those numbers.

It's just because we now have the ability to test people a lot faster and, you know, get to them.

But at the same time, remember these three cases we now have in Kiowa County?

None of them are sick enough to be in the hospital.

They're all quarantined at home and all of the people that there were six people that they came in contact with. 00:01:57.500 --> 00:02:7.680  Those folks are quarantined at home, too, for the 14 day period, and, um, you know everything is is running like clockwork like it should. 00:02:7.680 --> 00:02:9.250  The health department is in touch with them. 00:02:9.250 --> 00:02:15.790  They're being monitored and it's, you know, the protocols are in place, and that's what's happening.

So right now, and in case you you're just now kind of coming home from work and tuning in on all this.

So the cases are three people, two men and a woman all between the ages of 54 56.

They were in Egypt on a cruise of the Nile.

They, uh, attracted the virus on that cruise and the other was at the APEC conference in Washington, D.

And came back and was not the only person who contracted.

Like you said it, we're gonna get a point.

I feel like it's almost like that seaplane. 00:02:55.140 --> 00:03:3.880  It's like sometimes when we start start talking about and I'm leaving, I'm not trying to make light of any of this, but with men's we talked about Okay, we're in for a lot of snow. 00:03:3.890 --> 00:03:5.770  That's he says, Hey, don't look at the numbers. 00:03:6.150 --> 00:03:9.120  Look at the results and look at the overall. 00:03:9.350 --> 00:03:12.630  It's kind of like that with this No.

Three people have it in five people are under investigation, but it's that there are many more important issues than just the numbers when it comes to this, right?

Well, and I think I think the other really important issue is his look.

We've We've been here, you know, in a sense, before, you know, we've seen Corona viruses before.

Corona viruses typically come from animals, and then, you know, in some cases and you know they will transmit to human beings, and that's exactly what happened here.

So there were six other Corona viruses that were known to humans, and now we have a new one.

And the problem with this one is that obviously we've never seen it before, so we have no immunity, and now it's spreading around the world. 00:03:59.440 --> 00:04:3.930  And when everybody hears the word pandemic, they kind of get concerned. 00:04:3.940 --> 00:04:9.390  It's interesting to me is that the WHO World Health Organization has not used that word yet. 00:04:9.400 --> 00:04:16.500  They haven't declared this a pandemic, and a lot of health professionals are saying, you know, Hey, it's pretty much around the world now.

It's in over 100 countries, so why aren't you using that word?

But when you do hear the word pandemic, all that means is it's global.

It went around the world, and the other way I described that is you know, we have these things called airplanes, and they go around the world too, and they pick up sick people and sick people travel around the world.

And that's how easily these viruses get spread.

And that's why they spread so quickly as well.

And, um, you know, way always say we're just an airplane airplane ride away from an easily spreadable contagion.

And this is a perfect example of that. 00:04:59.320 --> 00:05:0.630  Debbie wants to know. 00:05:0.640 --> 00:05:3.490  Um, basically more details. 00:05:3.490 --> 00:05:3.820  What? 00:05:3.830 --> 00:05:7.570  Wearing Chiyoko County and why won't people tell us more? 00:05:7.580 --> 00:05:13.440  Well, there there are basically, you know, like like any with anything else, like with Pippa.

I mean, there are notifications that still have to be done, and there's some confidentiality that also Debbie here, here's the issue.

If you need to know and you're and you are at risk for, you know, being involved with these people, the health department would have already contacted you.

So, um, anybody who needs to be you know contacted because they've been in contact with these individuals who may be at risk.

They have already been contacted, or they're about to be contacted.

So, um, where and coyote, we do know There, outside the city of Cleveland.

I know somebody had said, You know, Chiyoda County's a big county Just got that, Believe me, you know, I know everybody wants to know, but you're right.

It is a hip issue. 00:05:58.620 --> 00:06:5.830  And, um, but the health department is very, very good at contacting those people who need to be contacted. 00:06:5.840 --> 00:06:9.860  And remember, these people did not contract this virus.

These people contracted the virus elsewhere, and, um, and again, I go to eventually.

What's gonna happen is the virus is going to be everywhere a CZ.

Sad as that is, it's it's going to be everywhere.

So these stories of you know, people being quarantined and that sort of thing eventually, you know, that's gonna go away, you know, because it's the virus is going to be everywhere.

But what we need to do now is be smarter than the virus and know how to prevent it.

And that's why we keep telling everybody you need to prevent the virus with hand washing, hand sanitizing.

Don't touch your eyes, your nose in your mouth.

Because this is the portal right here to get viruses into your system.

And for those wondering what are the symptoms? 00:06:59.820 --> 00:07:1.650  How do I know that Maybe I have it? 00:07:1.650 --> 00:07:5.440  Or at what point do I I gotta go to the doctor. 00:07:5.440 --> 00:07:6.950  I've gotta I've gotta figure this out. 00:07:7.340 --> 00:07:19.440  Fever, cough, breathing issues, shortness of breath and the fact that they appear that the symptoms pop up anywhere from 2 to 14 days after exposure.

And here's the difference between Corona virus and influenza.

Okay, Andi, I'm saying influenza, You may call it the flu, but we tend to call every respiratory illness, the flu, influenza.

You know the thing that you get the flu shot four.

And I say this because influenza can kill you.

If you didn't get your flu shot or unfortunately now our flu shot is not, ah, 100% effective.

It never is because the the influence of viruses constantly mutating. 00:07:56.800 --> 00:08:1.940  But this this flu shot is about 55% effective. 00:08:2.170 --> 00:08:7.660  The difference between Corona virus and flu is the flu is gonna hit you like a Mack truck. 00:08:7.910 --> 00:08:11.750  And all of a sudden it's just gonna knock you down like like, steep.

And And what's gonna happen with that is you're gonna have severe muscle aches.

You're gonna have the cough, the seizing, sometimes the diarrhea, the vomiting.

You're gonna have the the whole, you know, plague of miserable.

You know, I used to tell people that if you literally ever had true influenza, the hair on your arms will hurt and it's excruciating.

And you will never, ever not get your flu shot again.

And so all these people who always tell me that Oh, I had the flu.

You had a bad respiratory infection or you had just one of the hundreds of other colds and viruses that are floating around every cold and flu season.

But you did not have actual influenza or you would never miss your flu shot question that came earlier today on Twitter, and I think it I would have matching some people here tonight on Facebook, live in YouTube and on W k y w a y si dot com Want to know?

Everything's good, but, hey, you know, White, wash your hands because there's other stuff they could bring home to.

So, um, you know, wash your hands after you cuddle, but now your pets are fine.

It's interesting that Karen wants to know, um, can be transmitted through like insect bites.

This is a respiratory illness, so we're talking, coughing, sneezing, you know, spitting on somebody that that kind of stuff. 00:09:57.500 --> 00:10:3.880  So it's typically transmitted via droplets, and there's still a lot we need to learn about this particular virus. 00:10:3.880 --> 00:10:6.710  But as of right now, that's that's our understanding. 00:10:6.960 --> 00:10:18.470  Carroll brings up a good question here on Facebook, and I think it goes to preventing this or precautions, some say, wearing masks, another saying wearing masks don't wear the mask.

So the people who need to wear masks are the people who are in hospitals who wear Who are the health care workers, the other people who need to wear masks.

If you were someone at home taking care of someone who has corona virus if your caregiver of someone and then lastly, that people who need to be wearing masks are those who are coughing and sneezing, who need to go to the hospital or the doctor's office because you may be transmitting viruses.

Those are the only people who need to be wearing masks.
