I find it hard to believe that suddenly famous people are contracting COVID-19 out of the blue when there is a .00001 chance of catching it - a chance that is on par with being struck by lightning.
I think the only way this could be happening is if of those 13M people in the US who already have had or currently have the flu this season (past 90 days), already had contracted the virus and are only now getting tested for it. If they were never tested for it - which many probably were not - they would've never known they had it. Only now because of the concern and fear, people are getting tested.
