More than one-fourth of Americans are being ordered to stay home as much as possible in an attempt to slow the spread of coronavirus. The governors of New York, Illinois and Connecticut on Friday joined California and Pennsylvania in shutting down most businesses. Workers considered "essential" are exempt, meaning grocery stores, pharmacies and take-out restaurants will stay open in those states.

There are more than 19,300 cases in the U.S., and at least 250 people have died, according to John Hopkins University.

1. Massachussets Gov. Baker (R) said yesterday he won't be doing this.

But I don't know how long that will last. I suspect they will each fold, one by one, over the next week or so.

2. what exactly did he say? because..

I've heard from public safety and health contacts that it will be announced monday.....

They could be wrong of course, telegraphing a possibility into their thoughts, but then again, no firm decision may have been made.

9. Something about dispelling rumors that Mass would doing what NY, etc are doing. n/t

7. ONLY 6. The US is going to be Italy on crack cocaine within 2-3 weeks. There's virtually no testing

being done so all those states who are doing nothing now, are going to be clobbered by the numbers turning up at their ER rooms. It's almost elective genocide.

8. It's insane. Absolutely mind boggling and frustrating

at the abject lack of leadership nationwide
