35. It is odd. I wonder if they participated in different events.

The guy who already got COVID is in his late twenties. One of the two men who did get COVID last week is his dad. The dad is in his 60s and the other guy who got COVID is about 70.

I suspect that the 2 older men networked with a lot of different people. The younger guy is a slacker and the boss's kid, so he was probably goofing off the entire week. I think they offer golf and boating events at this conference, so he probably found things to do outside while the grown-ups worked.

But father and son flew home together on the same flight and probably sat next to each other. Jeez, I wonder if you're required to report that you have COVID to the airline? No telling how many people he came into contact with on the return trip.
