Health officials keep stressing that the main reason we're wearing masks is to protect other people. Some people who get the virus never get any symptoms, and they could infect others without knowing it. This week in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania we got a pretty incredible illustration of that. All 939 inmates at Montgomery County Correctional Facility were tested for coronavirus. Of the 740 results they have so far, 169 are positive. But none of the 169 positive inmates showed any symptoms. Montgomery County Commissioner Dr. Val Arkoosh called into KYW Newsradio on Tuesday morning, April 28, to talk about the results from the correctional facility, where she thinks we are in the fight against COVID-19, and what needs to happen before we're ready to reopen.
