That begs the question, namely what in fact can folks in assisted living or who have in home care givers do to "protect themselves" if unbeknownst to anyone their care giver is an asymptomatic covid-19 carrier?

No offense to any qualified care givers, but the field of entry level workers without a CNA or equivalent is rife with rapid turnover by folks pretty much near the bottom of the pool of potential employees: about the same level as fast food workers.

Many are drug users and given the rotten wage they're paid it is wishful thinking to assume they'll follow all of the prophylactic requirements necessary to keep their vulnerable patients disease free.

Live Free And Die?

I sure hope not.
