0:00.0 | Zop you beautiful bastards. Hope you've been a fantastic Monday. Welcome back to the Philip |
0:04.4 | DeFranco Show. Buckle up, hit that like button. Otherwise, it will punch you in the throat. |
0:08.4 | And let's just jump into it. And the first thing we're going to talk about today are |
0:11.5 | coronavirus updates, because over the weekend we saw some massive ones. This, including the first |
0:15.5 | two confirmed deaths from the virus in the United States, both happening in Washington State. Here I will say it is important to mention that both of those who died were elderly adults with underlying health problems. |
0:23.6 | And actually this morning we ended up seeing even more reports that four more people in Washington State have died. |
0:28.6 | According to those reports, some of them were actually residents at a nursing home in Kirkland, Washington, |
0:32.6 | which now seems like the nursing home is having an outbreak. |
0:35.6 | So far, we've seen six confirmed cases from that facility. |
0:37.9 | We've also seen reports that other residents and employees are complaining about being sick. |

1:03.2 | 1,700. As of this morning, South Korea is reporting 4,300. Right, that makes it easily the largest |
1:08.3 | outbreak outside of China, which actually on the note of China, |
1:10.9 | kind of like we talked about on Thursday, we're seeing reports of a meaningful change in the number of cases in China. |
1:14.6 | Because yes, while most of the world's 89,000 cases are in China today, it only reported 202 new cases and 42 deaths. |
1:20.6 | Which obviously, when you're talking about the number of infections, right, 200 is still a meaningful number, |
