Do these doctors really think that any of the country's Governors and Mayor's would go along with that idea if in case it happens?

I really doubt that even one state or local leader would. Those doctors need to not worry about this open by Easter fantasy and instead concentrate on helping people who need medical care. JMO

It might be like here in Scotland we have to stay home and everywhere is closed apart from supermarkets and pharmacies.

Right, and the leader proposing it is suggesting it for the epicenter (NY) as well as two neighboring states (NJ , "parts of Connecticut") Other states already require self-quarantine for NY travelers, which makes total sense. Right now, the governors everywhere are most relevant, and that's who I watch the most.

Brooklyn lawyer sues Cuomo over coronavirus orders

“Clearly, there is a grave public health emergency in New York. We understand that,” Norm Pattis, Nigen’s attorney, said in a written statement. “But lawful process matters and emergency orders of this sort, if left unchallenged, will evolve into precedents with horrifying consequences.”

That Brooklyn lawyer is REALLY going to have a problem with this one: BBM

Trump says he's considering short-term quarantine of New York, New Jersey, parts of Connecticut - CNNPolitics

"Trump said that the possible quarantine would be "enforceable" and "restrict travel" from those parts of the tri-state area.
"Restrict travel, because they're having problems down in Florida, a lot of New Yorkers going down. We don't want that," he said.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that he spoke with Trump on Saturday morning, but that the two had not discussed a quarantine for the state.
"I don't even know what that means. I don't know how that could be legally enforceable," the Democratic governor said during in a news conference in Albany. "And from a medical point view, I don't know what you would be accomplishing.""

Trump considering 'enforceable quarantine' for N.Y., parts of N. J. and Connecticut

President Donald Trump said Saturday that he was considering an "enforceable quarantine" in the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area due to the coronavirus outbreak, saying the decision could come as soon as later in the day.

“Some people would like to see New York quarantined because its a hot spot. New York, New Jersey, maybe one or two other places. Certain parts of Connecticut quarantined,” Trump said as he left the White House en route of Norfolk, Va. to see off the USNS Comfort, a Navy hospital ship that is headed to New York to provide extra hospital space to help fight the outbreak.

Hahaha. Bring it on. Too little too late. He should have done this weeks ago, everyone who wanted to escape is already at their Floridian home, the Hamptons, Jersey shore or the Poconos.

As Cuomo said of Trump: "And from a medical point of view, I don't know what you would be accomplishing.""
 
It’s more than just a nasal swab to find out if you have COVID-19, it’s a nasopharyngeal swab. That’s when someone takes a flexible stick, around 10 inches long, and shoves it way up into your nose.

“It should be uncomfortable,” said Dr. Morgan McCoy, assistant professor in Pathology & Laboratory Medicine in the UK College of Medicine. “If it’s uncomfortable, then that means that it was a good collection.”

Trying to... but they cannot get through the Panama Canal. This is one of the reasons that there are so many cases in Miami-Dade county...so many younger cruise ship workers who disembarked with no symptoms, tranversing different ships. This industry is dead for a long time ....

Why doesn't the ship go to California? Florida has enough headaches.

Everyone has already left who wanted to is true.

What about those who may change their mind and want to leave today? Or tomorrow? Next week? JMO

I just took a screen shot of the tally and posted it on my Instagram and wrote:

”Do we see a pattern here? If your state government has asked you to stay home (and even if it hasn’t), please do...no visiting, no travel, no non-essential work. STOP THE SPREAD to “Flatten the curve” so our health care system is not overwhelmed like Italy and NYC. Go to cdc.gov and your state website for more info. Thank you from (our names) who are in the risk group.“

It had come to my attention that local friends were visiting and continuing to work at their non-essential self-employment and one family from CA had traveled to a state with few cases to visit family. And these are all smart people. :mad:

I'm sure they appreciate the heads' up, then. And hopefully would be forced to quarantine in whatever state they landed in. But even so, at this point, the infection genie is out of the bottle for the US, IMO. I'm guessing there are no untouched areas in the US, - just areas that aren't shut. JMO, and I wouldn't know for sure.
 
Small victory here at home. I found a chocolate bar in the back of the bread drawer. I took half and left hubby half. Biggest decision today is what time to have my shower. 4 p.m. is temp check time. Hubby playing solitaire on his laptop. Oh and what pr. of jammers to change into from the ones I am in :p

I think he's trying to make us stay in the house?

But, Mr. Trump, you want us to go back to work!??! Which is it?!? Just let me know now so I can decide whether or not to visit family (legally I can) in Florida.

There's a possibility that sometime today we'll do a quarantine, short-term two weeks, on New York, probably New Jersey, certain parts of Connecticut," Trump told reporters on the South Lawn on Saturday.

The president said he "doesn't want to do" an enforceable quarantine for the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area "but may have to." He said if he makes this decision, an announcement will be made Saturday.

Later, Trump doubled down on his statement about a potential quarantine tweeting that "A decision will be made, one way or another, shortly."

The president at the Comfort event said the quarantine would not affect truckers or trade in any way, and that a decision would be made soon.

"I am now considering, will make a decision very quickly, very shortly, a quarantine because it's such a hot area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, will be announcing that one way or the other fairly soon. This does not apply to people such as truckers from outside the New York area who are making deliveries or simply transiting through. It won't affect trade in any way," Trump said.

Trump says he's considering 14-day 'enforceable quarantine' for NY, NJ, CT

Mortgage Relief - 90 Day Grace Period in NJ. No late fees, no downgrading of credit scores.

Governor Phil Murphy (NJ) - live presser
Click to expand...

Five major banks and state-chartered institutions in New Jersey will offer a 90-day grace period on residential mortgage payments for borrowers impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, Gov. Phil Murphy announced Saturday.

Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase, US bank, Wells Fargo and Bank of America agreed to this grace period where borrowers can either reduce or delay their monthly mortgage payments.

Another 40 other federal and state-charted banks and credit unions also agreed to this mortgage forbearance period.

This grace period cannot harm anyone's credit rating, and institutions will not charge any late fees or other costs.

Moratorium on foreclosures and evictions

The measure mirrors what California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced earlier this week, though Murphy said he thinks New Jersey is the first state to make this agreement with Bank of America.

"Now is the time to do even more," Murphy said. "I urge and expect our financial institutions and credit card companies to do the right thing in all areas of their business, including lowering credit card interest rates, waive late fees, and exercise compassion when people call with financial hardship."

Here's what Murphy's 90-day mortgage grace period announcement means for New Jerseyans

I would expect nothing less from this ambulance chasing bozo who defended the alleged killer of Jennifer Dulos.
