I've been expecting this to happen soon after NYC shut down schools. A decision should be coming in the next 48 hours. Personally, I think it's 48 hours warning. Glad I got a food delivery slot tomorrow. |

Seems like Cuomo and de Blasio do not get along. Cuomo says it is his right to tell NCY to SIP not deBlasio...so I don't know who will win out. Cuomo says he does not want to close NYC. |

With the case count they have in New York, they need to do something drastic. Waiting won’t improve the situation. |

There's a tremendous disconnect between deBlasio and Cuomo. Cuomo ultimately had to pull the plug on schools and gave 24 hours for deBlasio to figure out the logistics of childcare for emergency and healthcare workers and meal grab bag programs for eligible children. I'm not defending deBlasio or Cuomo. At some point, we have to quarantine. If that doesn't happen that curve...wave.. whatever is going to crash down on our already stressed hospitals. |

I hear that the Navy hospital ships are being deployed to take care of the "everyday" medical cases What a GREAT IDEA.... |

Yes. But The Comfort is presently docked in Maryland for repairs. Hopefully it will soon be on the way to New York Harbor. The Mercy is on its way to California. |

We are in a shelter in place mode here in Salinas Ca. Everything is closed and I am bored to tears. i just pray that this shelter in place mode will not go on for months. I am sure that a lot of people out there are having trouble coping with all of the hoarding people in the grocery stores Come on folks who needs 50 rolls of toilet paper at a time?? kmjog |
