Friends went to Orange Blossom on March 17th, ten of them. The waitress was sniffing. Six in the group became sick. My friends, one was in intensive care for ten days and the other was so sick at home that a friend moved in with her. She became so dehydrated at one point she had to be taken by ambulance to emergency for six hours to be rehydrated. They are younger than us. They are very active.
I wish we knew more about the cases of people who have contracted it here in The Villages. This is the only instance of anyone I know who has contracted the virus.
Does anyone else know anyone personally? Obviously I can't vouch it was Covid-19. I certainly do not fault the waitress or the restaurant. I do believe that it very well have been Covid-19, but I am just grateful our friends are slowly recovering.
We all have been told that it spreads very easily from one human to another. We all know that the older we are the more deadly it is. These two are at least ten years younger than us.

I do. The waitress should have called in sick if she had the "sniffles", and the management should have sent her home when they noticed her.
