A Good Update about Coronavirus (Yes, One Does Exist)

It's rare to have something good about coronavirus to pass along these days (and I use the word 'good' because 'positive' in relation to COVID-19 is exactly the opposite of a positive thing), but we do.

Many parts of the world, like China and Italy, have been dealing with the outbreak for far longer than the United States. And while a great deal of news coming out of those countries is still bleak, those nations are also getting a handle on coronavirus sooner.

A couple key takeaways are that Wuhan, China (where the first case of coronavirus was detected) has closed all it's temporary hospitals because very recently there have only been about 1-2 new cases per day, according to the New York Post. An Italian COVID-19+ patient has reportedly been successfully treated using a cocktail of drugs that already exists. Cleveland Clinic reports that it's developed a coronavirus test that gives results in a matter of hours, not days. And, the first positive patients in Maryland and Oklahoma are close to being fully recovered.
