It appears Jeffrey was higher-risk patient. He had a history of asthma and frequent bronchitis as a child, though he outgrew that. He also had undergone surgery for testicular cancer back in 2016.

Scary as hell, especially for the mother of two sons around that age, one of whom lives in one of the most affected counties in CA. (The other is continuing to work in what's considered an "essential" service. FWIW that's the one who had life-threatening asthma as a child...)

It is heart-rending to consider that if one of them
got really sick with this curse, I would probably not even be allowed to visit them (if indeed I could make the flight).
