Do you know someone who contracted Covid-19?

I ask this, because I spoke to a supplier on the phone earlier today. This was his exact words:
"Covid-19 is bullshit. I live in Gauteng and I don't know anybody who has the disease. Nobody I know knows anybody who has this desease..."
Then I had to burst his bubble.
I now know of two of my friends who contracted the disease.
One of them is one of the first 100 people in SA to test positive. He traveled overseas. He recovered.
This weekend a 2nd person I know called me and let me know he tested positive. He lives in the Eastern Cape. He says he is fine, but the colleague that he suspects infected him is seriously ill.
I'm not big on social media, so more people I know may have been infected, but these two cases are guys I interact with regularly.

These kinds of people are the reason why we still don't have flying cars.
Had an Uber driver tell me the same rubbish after I asked him about sanitizer. I told him "I have COVID-19" when I got off the car and of course, put that down on his review sect.
Yes, I know 2people... a cousin in the USA who did get kinda sick but he's fine now . And some lady I know..... shockingly, her daughter doesn't have it although they'd been sharing the same bed and stuff. Or she's not telling me the entire truth.
