First confirmed death from Covid 19 in TN.  Story also includes demographic information of victims.  This is definitely not just an old person's problem.

Look we are ALL GOING TO GET Covid19...it is just a matter of time.  We just have to live through this first wave and it is a big wave.  We will have a number of waves we just have to pray the hospitals can handle us and our families when we get it.   These are just the facts.

Huge spike in test results overnight.  TN running low on test kits still.

This story fails to note that Nashville and a huge swath of Middle Tennesse had a natural disaster on March 2nd.  Gov. Lee had a lot on his plate.  Unfortunately, I believe our problems will be multiplied by the large numbers of volunteers who turned up in the days after the tornados to assist with cleanup and searches for victims.  This might be part of the reason we are seeing so many young people infected.
