By the way, I just had a Zoom reunion with my fellow graduate students from Carnegie Mellon from the years 1967-1973 more or less.  I had forgotten that one of them had Covid-19.  Stu Card wrote a book with Allen Newell on human-computer interaction in which they develop a model of the human user.  Stu has recovered despite having an "underlying condition".

They did not but I'm sure it's far smaller than 1/3.

Interesting. I didn't see the show, but might watch it on their web site. Did they mention what proportion of white Americans know someone who has had Covid-19?

One third of all black Americans know a person who has had Covid-19.  So says CBS Sunday Morning.

I believe my brother has had it.

When he is well enough to move around and not infect anybody else he intends to go get tested for antibodies.  Maybe another week.

Said it was one of the three worst illnesses of his life so far, though it looks like mostly extreme fatigue and lassitude; not evident trouble breathing.  And he is 7 years younger than I am.

David,
 
[hidden email] works just fine or [hidden email]
 
I am really, REALLY  sorry but I don't think we should meet.  I just told my "pod" that I think that, with the rising cases in neighboring states, Santa Fe has started to get more dangerous again, and that we should we should be even more careful than we have been. (Rural Western Massachusetts got a lot of cases from "vacationing" New Yorkers in March.)   With talk of a vaccine by the beginning of next year, it just seems stupid to take any risks whatsoever. 
 
It's not that long.  In the meantime, let's continue to interact electronically.  We could do our own zoom session.  You will point out how "notional" the hazard is, and I will have to admit that I actually have no first-hand experience with the disease, what-so-ever.  I don't even know anybody, personally, who has told me that they know anybody who has had the disease.  It is still, for me, a media event.  A cultural meme.  Pray God it remains that way.   
 
So let's plan to meet "on the other side.". 
 
You take care!
