Seems suspicious to me that folks who work in the Hollywood and Washington Celebrity Industrial Complex are quarantining at an exponentially higher rate than regular folks.
What could account for this?
Maybe it's because they can afford testing. I've read that even if you can find a test, it's often quite expensive.
Or, maybe some of these folks are just out for the extra attention. After all, that's pretty much the name of the game, both in Hollywood and in Washington.
Or could they be part of an orchestrated PR campaign? After all, publicity is the bread and butter of the CIC. It would be a great public service if all these public personalities, whether actors or politicians, could be harnessed to impress upon us rubes the severity of this plague so that we voluntarily submit to house arrest.
To test for this hypothesis, we need to keep a close eye on the COVID-19 mortality rate among the rich and famous. As of now, a goodly swath of Hollywood has "tested positive," as they say.
But how many have expired due to this global pandemic?
