The local news says she was likely not carrying it from Montana to Maryland. So we have a dot but nobody in the state, physically, has tested positive yet.

Montana apparently gets “credit” for having our first case even though she’s not physically here.

Hope you’re staying as safe as possible Maru Kitteh. You are in the front lines of this shit show. I worry about our health care professionals. If you all are sidelined...what will happen to the rest of us?
