Well . . . this is discouraging. . . .

Walmart, Costco, Target are barred from selling 'nonessential' items such as clothing and electronics in parts of the US

The only way that customers can shop for these nonessential items is by using online delivery services or curbside pickup.

I am sure the virus was here well before we realized it. By the time you find your first confirmed case it is already too late. It still doesn't really explain the low numbers. I think the numbers being lower than New York have to do with how the people responded. In NY Cuomo has literally scolded people on TV for not taking things seriously in NYC. People still hold gatherings, they still crowd together in parks, they are crowded together on public transit more than in CA. There are many factors in play.

That's freaking early. Our district voted to truncate our April break, so instead of a full week off it's just today through Monday. We'll go back on Tuesday, and then finish out the year probably between June 3-10.

That's why they are doing the study to see if Californians had it in higher numbers when they thought it was an early flu season. If so and they've already developed a herd immunity it would be good news and a positive sign we may eventually get back to somewhat normal

And yet again these articles are proving what I've been saying about we all just need to be exposed to it to build up immunity. Who'da thunk it?
