LOS ANGELES - A Korean Air flight attendant tested positive for coronavirus after working on flights in and out of Los Angeles, according to reports from South Korean media.

The flight attendant worked flights between Los Angeles International Airport and Incheon International Airport in Seoul, South Korea, on Feb. 19 and 20, the reports stated.

The woman had also serviced a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, to Seoul on Feb. 15, South Korea's Center for Disease Control said.

The Times of Israel reported that the flight attendant was in Israel before coming to L.A., where it's believed she spent time walking around Koreatown before boarding on a return flight to Incheon, South Korea.

About a dozen airlines have daily flights LAX to/from Seoul, and some have multiple flights per day.

There's probably more air traffic on that route than one might expect.

I got out of the market when I figured the Obama economy had run its course, which was in Feb of 2018. I figured republicans always trash the economy and trump will be the worst trasher yet. I put myself in very safe things so my total yield on my 401K is only about 5% or less.

I have been feeling a little dumb about that decision for the past year. But now I'm glad I did it.
