I still haven't seen any local cancellations of events, but I have seen ticket sales capped at 200 to stay under that 250 people threshold that was in the latest directive for limiting gatherings I've seen for CA. Basically seems like people are willing to do exactly what is required as far as social distancing goes and I have my doubts that that will be effective.

They're going to clamp down much harder than this really soon. Gov. Newsome is going to start shutting shit down. He has to.

There are two things that are true: There aren't enough tests available right now; and many more people are sick than the official count. The Medium article that tracked the outbreak in China and So. Korea suggests that it's like 8x more people sick than the official count early on.

Because of that, lots of sick people are already roaming around being infectious.

So it's going to going to blow up in the next couple weeks.

Look at this Patient Zero muthafuckah! [link]

Well, DAMN: Ohio is banning gatherings of 100 people or more and closing K-12 schools for at least three weeks beginning at the close of school Monday. [link]

Theaters are going to be closed. And the ones that are open aren't going to have anybody. Concerts are being cancelled.

Opening Day for Baseball has been cancelled and the first two weeks of the season.

Currently closely watching to see whether St. Patrick's Day Parade & Irish Festival will be cancelled on Saturday, and House of Ireland Program on Sunday. I wouldn't miss the parade (I never get there that early anyway), but I'd be bummed if they cancel Irish Faire, and I'm supposed to be performing at the HoI Program (plus seeing friends I haven't seen in an annoyingly long time).

Man, that hurts. I mean, we have to flatten the curve, whatever it takes. But that still hurts.

States and cities are having to make the decisions without a lot of guidance from the federal level. Ignoring the orange occupant and listening to the Epidemiologists would lead one to believe that seriously hunkering down and eliminating elective gatherings is a pretty good idea. So I won't cry about missing my parade, much.

My parents new home, a retirement community is on lockdown. Meals being delivered door to door.

My work is becoming crazy. Dept of aging centers closing. Recs and parks closing. We have no official policy out to us about who is getting paid and when and how.

We are getting remote access requests in fast and furious for our department, I can only imagine e how slammed IT is.

My son's FIL has a BMX competition on Saturday that we were planning to attend. I'll have to check and see if it is still on.
