    Not sure what you mean by "caught". He probably should have gone for testing ~Nov. 20, and it isn't clear why he didn't. Do you know something? :smile: I go by Heinlein's Law: Never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity.

    I agree. By "caught" I only meant that he was eventukally identified as positive for covid.

    I think this is a way of life in upper government ranks in some places here. He let his activities be known, so he's not concerned and willing to assist contact tracing. What is puzzling is that he went home with a fever and didn't get it checked. I don't understand that, with all the flap about corona. But this type of behavior shows up everywhere.

    Massage "while on duty" may be a euphemism.

    According to the revised CDC information, the virus is spread mostly from person-to-person contact and not so much through the presence of the virus on surfaces, as was previously believed.
    “COVID-19 is thought to spread mainly through close contact from person-to-person. Some people without symptoms may be able to spread the virus,” the new information says.

    Who did think that direct transmission was less likely than indirect? I am not aware of that being thought of as the major route and would have seriously doubted it if I had been told.
