A Southern California man who tested positive for coronavirus after attending
a party expressed his fear and regret a day before he died.

Thomas Macias, 51, went to a barbecue last month near his community in Lake
Elsinore, about 70 miles from Los Angeles.

Shortly after the party, he started feeling sick. On June 20, he posted a
poignant message on Facebook to warn his loved ones about the risks of the
virus, his family said.

"I went out a couple of weeks ago ... because of my stupidity I put my mom
and sisters and my family's health in jeopardy," he wrote. "This has been a
very painful experience. This is no joke. If you have to go out, wear a mask,
and practice social distancing. ... Hopefully with God's help, I'll be able
to survive this."

He never made it. He died a day after that post.

# A friend attended the party while sick

Macias worked as a truck driver and suffered from diabetes, making him
especially vulnerable to the virus. Doctors have said people with underlying
conditions such as diabetes, chronic lung disease and asthma are at a higher
risk.

Before the barbecue, he had barely gone out, his brother-in-law Gustavo Lopez
told CNN. But he was incredibly social and was feeling isolated, and decided
to visit his friends when the state lifted some restrictions, he added.

"Everywhere he went he made friends instantly," Lopez said. "He was missing
his friends and missing his family. So as soon as they lifted some of the
restrictions he felt free and he unfortunately went to this get-together to
be with his friends and then this was the result."

A friend who was at the party reached out to Macias to say he had
coronavirus, and he was aware of the diagnosis when he attended the gathering
but didn't think he could infect anyone because he had no symptoms, Lopez
said.

"Our understanding is that a gentleman had called him and said 'hey I was at
the party, I knew I was positive. I didn't tell anybody,'" Lopez said. "I
think the gentleman was regretting not telling everybody, and he was calling
people who were at the party to recommend they get tested."

Macias was upset but blamed himself for the error in judgment, even using his
Facebook post to warn friends about the dangers of the virus. About a dozen
people who attended the party tested positive, Lopez said.

"He was mostly concerned that he could have potentially infected one of us,"
his niece, Danielle Lopez, told CNN on Friday. "Family meant everything for
him, he put family above everything else."

Macias got tested on June 15, got his positive result June 18 and died June
21. The Riverside County Office of Vital Records confirmed that he died of
coronavirus.

Riverside County has over 18,000 confirmed coronavirus cases and about 460
deaths. It has the second-highest number of cases in the state after Los
Angeles County.

一名南加州男子在參加派對後被檢測出冠狀病毒陽性，他在死前一天表達了他的恐懼和遺
憾。

上個月，51歲的托馬斯· 馬西亞斯(Thomas Macias)參加了他在埃爾西諾湖(Lake
Elsinore)社區附近的一次燒烤聚會，那裏距離洛杉磯約70英里。

聚會結束後不久，他開始感到不舒服。他的家人說，6月20日，他在Facebook上發佈了一
條令人心酸的消息，提醒他的親人警惕病毒的風險。



他沒能撐過去，他在貼文後隔天去世。

 # 一名朋友不顧自己生病參加了聚會

馬西亞斯是一名卡車司機，患有糖尿病，這使他特別容易感染病毒。醫生表示，患有糖尿
病、慢性肺病和哮喘等潛在疾病的人患病的風險更高。





洛佩茲說，當時在場的一個朋友聯繫馬西亞斯，告訴他自己感染了冠狀病毒，他在參加聚
會時就知道了診斷結果，但他認爲自己不會傳染給任何人，因爲他沒有症狀。



馬西亞斯很沮喪，但他責怪自己的錯誤判斷，甚至在Facebook上警告朋友病毒的危險。洛
佩斯說，大約有12名參加聚會的人檢測結果呈陽性。

「他最擔心的是他可能會感染我們任何人，”他的侄女丹妮莉洛佩茲(Danielle Lopez)
週五告訴CNN。「對他來說，家庭就是一切，他把家庭放在第一位。」

馬西亞斯於6月15日接受檢測，6月18日得到陽性結果，6月21日去世。河濱郡生命記錄辦
公室證實他死於冠狀病毒。

河濱郡已確診18,000例冠狀病毒病例，約460人死亡。該州的病例數僅次於洛杉磯郡，位
居第二。

6.備註:
不要再說無症狀者不會傳染給人了。
對有慢性病的人來說，確診，生病然後死掉，就連後悔的時間都沒剩下多少。
這位卡車司機是個好人，他完全遵守規定不出門，就參加個這麼一次派對，
他就掛了，連道別都來不及。

補充，這條新聞貼在網路上以後，許多美國人的反應...
竟然是說這是一條假新聞在散布恐慌...
直到死者的親屬出來回文...包括裡面提到的他姊夫跟姪女都出來回文...

各位可以去Facebook上面用死者的名字去Gooogle，你就會發現美國之所以會變這樣
，完全就是一堆美國智障....
