We're well into the point where just about everybody is seeing the effects of the spread of this disease. How's this affecting you and your social or family circles?
I might re-play this discussion in a couple weeks to a month. This is going to change over time and I expected society to change as a whole over this event.
This is Monday 1 of our 2-week shutdown; grocery items are still plentiful; gas is under $2; most people are stocking up and continuing on with work.
Local and franchise restaurants are going to close soon. Some big corporations are closing (Disney gives 2 weeks paid vacation to some workers); Groceries and Walmart are booming; small businesses will continue until they are forced to close; medical/ pharmaceutical will be the last hold outs, and if you are sick, they recommend you self treat, at home.
Cities are beginning to shut down Parks and Recreation (no unattended children in parks); public events are being done online (no live spectators). Everyone seems to be adjusting and taking it all in stride. Peace.
