Let’s not try and take over the job of the Health Department by spreading rumors or panicking. We should all just take advice for seniors given by CDC .
I agree it's private however this is not a "personal health issue", this is a health issue that could involve a lot of people, If the person was at a Publix, Bealls, whatever restaurant, I think it is our business to know if we could've come in contact with him. If this person has only been in certain parts of the Villages then it's "none of my business" but a concern for the person or persons having it or getting the virus.
