  • I read the county is not reporting on cities under 25,000 - what about the 18,000 senior that comprise nearly the entire population of Laguna Woods? Anybody?

    • That community is very well-organized. Their head of security is a former Deputy Sheriff. My guess is they are weathering this storm.

  • As populated as Santa Ana is, I highly doubt that the number of people affected by the Corona Virus is as low as what is being reported.
