LT is out today.
Yesterday's thread is here:

i had a young family member ask if she should ship me hand sanitizer because her store had some.
I told her no, I have plenty..but darn it buy it for yourself
NYC in “State of Emergency” with ban on all gatherings of over 500 people/

De Blasio even obliquely praises Trump at the end of article.
In about a week this thread will be the place that’s telling everyone to calm down LOL!
In a week? I was told that TWO weeks ago. What happened?
No matter how many rolls of toilet paper we buy more deaths are coming. That was always certain and Wu Flu tantruming until the economy shuts down serves to do nothing except elect Democrats.
Something many of us didn’t anticipate: Apparently there is now a run on liquor. My husband bought the last bottle of gin and vodka at the liquor store near where he works this afternoon.
*********
My husband manages one of our ABC store. I’m golden. :-)
you know what I just noticed from that DM article? Trump without a tie. Is it because it’s less fabric near his face? Is he in ‘working man’ mode? Maybe both?
the CDC has handed testing to the states and private entities.
official cases can now be certified by them.
CDC does not need to be testing anyone.
That’s what we did when we did our last Kroger run.
More of a ‘test case’ to see how it would work.
Worked just fine.
We had a cooler in the truck bed and asked them to put the cold stuff in there. Nonperishables in bags were wiped down and put in a storage room, stuff in the cooler was sprayed down and left to sit for a bit then wiped down and put in the fridge.
We tried the kroger.com deliver to home as well and have nothing but a good experience to report.
Ditto walmart.com, acehardware.com, lowes.com and hobbylobby.com :)
BREAKING: ATL public schools closing.
I imagine DW will be following, soon.
Kind of surprised they haven’t, with the FL cases.
I told hubby maybe they’re waiting for Spring Break to be over (it’s SB in most of TX). Hopefully, that’s not causing a hold up.
:(
Where??
Across the entire country??
LOL.
First week of February. We got a cpl bottles of everclear, some fireball, some rebel yell and something else I’ve forgotten already LOL.
“more deaths are coming. That was always certain”
Today Boris Johnson looked the English in the eye and said: Many of you will lose loved one’s over the next weeks and months.
My lawnmower guy did the seasonal repair today, so I ventured out to pick up the lawnmower (N CT).
The radio had one caller after another complaining that sports events were “cancelled over nothing”.
They are in deep deep denial....they are _not_ trolling and they are _not_ faking it.
ATL - Atlanta.
We got 180 proof everclear and fireball to drink too
NBA just announced that the suspension of play will be for minimum of 30 days.
Italy rules on trucking/delivery...
“... Drivers must not exit the vehicle and must have protective medical equipment (masks, gloves). If unloading or loading of goods requires leaving the vehicle, a minimum safety distance of 1 meter must be observed. The transport documentation must be processed electronically.”

I’d like to see some testing, but makes sense.
Just back from NJ. Shoprite was packed, I heard. Nearby towns had closed all schools, supermarkets
We are down to only four states with zero cases as of this moment:
AK
AL
ID
WV
(casinos are tribal land)
DisneyLand California to close until end of month
