Seems that way but I don’t have any science or evidence to back it up. Just knowing the large Chinese population here and the frequency travels across the Pacific, I’d guess COVID was making its way around the Bay in late 2019, in a possibly less virulent form.
Given the density of San Francisco (second most-dense large city in the States) and the shockingly high number of homeless, one would expect SF to get it bad, but we really haven’t. SF does have a robust infectious disease infrastructure due to being bollocked by HIV like few places were, but even then…something else must be going on.
But if this keeps up, we could be done with the little bastard by the end of the year; if a reliable rapid test can be rolled out. But masks and limited indoor activity will be a reality for a long while yet.
