California may be shut down but NY has the most cases and it isn't shutting down.

Now it is. All of New York has been quarantined. 100% of non essential personnel have been ordered to stay home. There are 3 times as many people needing ICU than there is capacity.

600 more people in Italy. Video report from the front lines in Italy. Martial law has been declared there.
 
At least they are finally getting serious.

Now if they would just produce tests, masks, and meds 19 might be brought under control.

I'm just going to drink some tonic water...some gin might accidentally spill into it. But it's full of quinine...it will help these leg cramps and Charlie horses.
 
Hey, they make sugar free tonic water...if anti malaria drugs are good... well I'm thinking about not taking chances...

On the serious side we were number 3 in new cases today...so far.

Pennsylvania also shut down...

Umm,.. I tried to watch the video and it had a message saying that it was blank and blocked. :/
 
Why everyone is concerned about corona I'm concerned about the ban on indoor congregation and the freedom of gathering.

You see, most people cannot go to church now, it's banned, and when this whole drama is over who is going to un-ban it, I don't see it ever being a big enough issue for politicians to discuss, near all churches, mosques, temples, and synagogues will be empty for...how long?, they also want the right to peaceful assembly over 500 banned, so the people can never make it a big enough issue to be heard. Anymore than 500 would be shut down. Who knows what of they make it 100, 50, 10. Never can people unite to get there voice heard. a group of people protest something and get shut down and arrested.

The truth is most religious gatherings inside have more than 100 people, only home churches don't and maybe a few very small churches.

What is comes down to is the right to peaceful assembly has been banned. Who is going to un-ban it.

What exactly does that mean? Are people able to get essentials? How do they regulate that?

Same thing as California, Illinois, and Pennsylvania.
Grocery stores, gas stations, fast food or take out places, banks, medical care, or delivery services can move about...

People can access these things too...
But at midnight saying that you wanted to go to the bank ain't gonna cut it when you get pulled over. You will find yourself in the pokey...waiting on a judge who is angry he had to open his courtroom (exposing himself to coronavirus) to sentence you.

NBC New York said:
Non-compliance by businesses may result in fines or summonses; at this point, there are no legal consequences for individuals but crowds violating the new orders will be broken up. People older than 70 and those with compromised immune systems are told to take even more precautions, including pre-screening visitors' temperatures and making sure any visitors wear masks.

150 EMT technicians tested positive. They are spiraling out of control. Americans desperately need protective masks, and tests for all citizens so infected people can be identified and quarantined.
 
Tennessee has relaxed the rules some about who can get tested...set up drive through testing centers.
And on the first day of drive thru testing Nashville's numbers doubled for positive cases.

I tried to tell my Dad he was grounded and couldn't leave the house unless 911 told him to...he did just like I did when I was a kid and disobeyed.

So basically, its not much different than what we have here in MN now. I can get groceries, fuel, off-sale liquor, hardware, go to the bank, etc. All things that involve gatherings or require close contact such as restaurants, on-sale liquor establishments, churches, salons, etc. are shut down.
 
There is nothing else on the news.

Construction will be shut down, all entertainment venues, not sure about mechanics and tow trucks...
Schools, libraries, information services...bye bye.

Pillsbury/ Yoplait, the meat processing plants, Dean Foods, and paper mills are all going 90 to nothing...
