    I’m sorry, but people are not taking it serious. People need to ware mask! If not for themselves then for older people! I think the younger people spread it to older people because they think it’s not a threat to themselves. You can be a carrier and not know it.

    Sudden jump due to ease of restrictions and ignoring CDC guidelines by many.

    Wonder if any of those who have it think it is a hoax or a government conspiracy? It’s real people and it’s only going to get worse if it’s not taken seriously.
