Yesterday it seemed to be the sports world that was issuing delays and cancellations.
Today’s entertainment news seems to be about regular TV programming. Expect ‘new’ TV programming to be impacted and a lot of reruns in the near future. According to spoilertv.com, the list of shows delaying/halting production is growing:
Bull, Carnival Row, Chicago Wednesday, Dynasty, FBI, Grace and Frankie, Grey’s Anatomy, Law and Order: SVU, NCIS franchise, New Amsterdam, Riverdale, and others.

Alaska got it’s first virus patient yesterday and it’s second one today. The Metlakatla high school boys and girls basketball teams went to a tournament in Juneau. For some reason one of the players was checked for the virus and found to be positive. The teams are headed back to the tiny clinic in Metlakatla on Annette Island in Southeast ALaska. They are fairly certain that there’s been further transmission of the virus within the group. I don’t think Anchorage knows about this yet.
