COVID-19 Petri dish redux

The Ohio State Pen at Marion is another perfect Petri dish for the Kung Flu.  Every single prisoner and staff member has been tested with accurate, fast-result kits.  (Notably, not the ones provided by the CDC that are wildly inaccurate and require a week to get results.)

Prisoner population of 2564, 1828 infected (71%), 2 deaths.

Staff population unlisted, 109 infected, one death.

Total infected: 1937
Total deaths: 3
CFR: 0.155%

There are only 21 people hospitalized for the Kung Flu in the county (of 2137 known infected), according to reports from this past weekend.  Anecdotal reporting that only a few dozen prisoners appeared to be ill.
