Dumb ass called it 'the flu' or whatever... Lines are open to take donations to keep the healing alive.

How do they go though with MLB when California having five teams, said no gatherings over 500 people?

Shocked March madness is going on...what happens if a player has the virus then the following weekend, they move on and travel to another city to a different playing site...

It's just scary

The Seattle field office has been WFH all week and Miami apparently sent their office home early today to start WFH. I don't know if HHS is doing a slow rollout of WFH to test capabilities. Would have been good to have today since it was pouring in Phoenix and I walk to work.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.

That travel ban is just freaking weird. I know he was just bending over backward to find something that looked like he was doing something without inconveniencing his base, but UK and Ireland have been as hard hit as many other places in Europe.

It really is stupid. It is the very definition of doing something to make it look like he is in control of the situation when, in fact, they have no fucking clue what they are doing. It is a half-assed measure, at best.
