Just saw a Coronavirus themed commercial for Las Vegas. Boy, those people are really something.

We've all seen the charts comparing like days of the U.S. to Italy. At what point do we just make it New York? Man. New York alone now has more cases than France. I would imagine Florida and California start getting those numbers too, not to mention surrounding areas. The U.S. is really going to show how well we've handled it soon.

 

TV just told me Rand Paul tested positive for coronavirus.

 

It won't be until the middle of next month before we really see if the measures taken in U.S. states have been effective or not.

 

It's going to be ugly by then but hopefully not as ugly as it might be otherwise. All these mass gatherings we've seen just this weekend don't lend a great deal of hope to my mind but we'll see.

I can only speak to my own area. Greater Boston seems to be largely if not wholly (no place will be) on board with the idea of staying at home, avoiding travel and avoiding others as much as possible.

Not looking forward to it, but it will be the first time I've left the house (except for solitary walks in my neighborhood) since Friday when I hit the local supermarket at like 8 a.m.
