Continued coverage for Reuters today of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the Seattle area. There has now been a second death in Kirkland. Some of my work was published in The New York Times here. NYT reports: “Officials see growing indications that the virus has been spreading undetected for weeks. A cluster of cases at one nursing home have made Kirkland, Wash., a focus of concern.”
