The imperative

Yeah, Mike, let's start with that first case of community transmission.

Present continuous

As you say it's concerning because they don't know where she became infected.

We're talking about a woman in her fifties.

She lives in the Vancouver coastal health region.

She has not recently traveled, and she's had no known contact with any of the existing cases of covert 19.

They found her case because doctors have been more vigorously testing flu patients for Corona virus as well, so she was not in isolation when she had those symptoms.

We do that and detective work to try and connect the dots so we can find out.

So there's likely at least one other person out there who's either had this disease or has this sissies, and we need to find them and find their contacts so we can stop any further transmission.

The seven other cases most most of them were expected four of them were related to one of the cases announced last week.

This was the man who was in his sixties who had been to Iran.

They were already in isolation when their symptoms developed to men in their twenties and thirties and also to women in their fifties and sixties.

There's another travel related case, this one also from Iran.

A couple from the same family, a woman in her fifties and a man in his sixties.

And then the final case, this one a little bit different.

A resident from Seattle who was here visiting family and one of those eight cases was linked to the closure of a school downtown.

We're gonna warn that to university case coming up.

But Dr Henry in the news conference today, changing her tone when it comes to changing travel plans.

What she's saying, Yeah, with spring break coming up, she says, family should really think deeply about international travel.

Cancel all plans, but it's certainly more risky now.

I would have a low tolerance rate now for a lot of international travel because we are seeing that this is moving very quickly and things can happen quite suddenly.

And I think it was an eye opener for many people in northern Italy how it evolved so quickly, and we're seeing the same thing in Washington state.

So this is one of those years where I would shift my thinking to staying at home.

If you are still planning to travel some questions to consider does the place you're going to have a strong health care system that can take care of you?

And if you come home, do you have the capacity to handle a 14 day quarantine?

So those are some of the things that you should be asking yourself right now.
