#COVID19 a powerful thread from an ER doc

This is...bad. Patient at UC Davis for a week. Had been in another hospital prior; intubated there. UC-D asked CDC to do a test upon admission (Wednesday). CDC declined b/c no link to China or known COVID case. Finally agreed to test on Sunday; took until today to get results.
