Nationwide, 47 states and the District have reported 5,469 cases and six deaths since the start of the outbreak in late April, according to the CDC's count.

Remember the good old days when they were breaking into news coverage and shutting down school systems on first word of a new case?

Hmmm... how about the 84 Cadets at the Air Force Academy? I doubt any of them are obese.
