COVID-19 Outbreak Information Updates (Reboot) [over 150.000,000 US cases (est.), 6,422,520 US hospitilizations, 1,148,691 US deaths.]

By that point, Covid was probably lurking around or omnipresent in most public places in cities, and states all over the nation. Restaurants, supermarkets, parks unless they were empty, beaches, schools, local, state and federal government buildings.

Yes, it was far more widespread than we imagined at that time (though "omnipresent" is an overstatement, I think) but it was still pretty wild to learn that he actually did that show with Covid.

This was before they even had testing, he spend days in the hospital recovering but didn't actually confirm it was Covid until they were able to do an antibody test a few weeks later.
