The CDC just encouraged nationwide that no gatherings of more than 50 people take place for 2 months.
So the CDC wants to eliminate rush hour traffic. Good luck with that ...
I'm going to assume this is an attempt at humor.
Yeah, it is. We need something to lighten the mood. Sorry if that did not work.
Props to HEB by the way. There was no milk, eggs or bread to be had in their stores yesterday, nor bottled water, but all of that was in stock today (I needed bread). They are doing a great job of keeping supplies in stock, and in so doing they are helping calm folks and send a message of confidence.
It's cool. Just things are unsettling. Yes HEB is doing a fantastic job.
As to schools the key thing is going online so the kids don't get off track academically, if they have to close.
At least we've had online education long enough that high schools and colleges can finish the semester online. That said, some of my daughter's fieldwork projects will be really hard to do as online classes.
I've been looking into Ro numbers for infectious diseases. One thing I found is that the Ro number is usually much higher early than later, when better information is available. I suspect the same thing will happen with C-19, due to what we have seen in nations where it showed up early.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier
