Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson are back in LA after coronavirus quarantine in Australia | Daily Mail Online

I bet they are glad to be back home. Nice Range Rover.

They look great.
I think you & your dogs would look equally great in the RR.

Thanks so much. We are good. Day 9 since exposure and no symptoms. I am being paid until April 4th and we all received a bonus. I took the 30 day optional lay off effective April 4th. I think it's time to retire, when my 30 days are up I wont be going back to work. I had been pondering it anyway and this just sealed the deal.

Bravo, you are such an inspiration with your positive attitude.

No symptoms at all. Health Unit here has been amazing with support thru calls. I dont want to worry anyone as we are fine and going to be fine. Husband and I are keeping apart for the duration.

That's some good news if it's every 4 days now, right? Yesterday it was doubling every 3 days, IIRC. And not long ago US was on track to double every 2 days. I hope it means we are slowing down and flattening the curve, but I still worry the US took action way too late. Can we still stop the tsunami?

MOO.

@Bravo the other day a friend said the same, summing it up as “so, no nothing has really changed.” Lol, one in each part of the house, doing their own thing. Perfect marriage?

Too funny. I have all my items at the back of the house. Wipes, spray, gloves, mask, as does hubby at front of house. He has the spare bedroom with bathroom. I have our bedroom with bathroom. We meet in the hall to talk lol. One using kitchen at a time. That's life in a nutshell. Pouring rain here BOO I want to do yard laps.

Quebec faces fallout from an early March break; a modelling system in B.C. suggests social distancing is helping. Public health officials continue to urge caution. "Stay inside your bubble," said Howard Njoo, Canada's deputy chief public health officer.

Quebec’s spring break, March 2-9, was “was at the worst time, right before people were warned not to travel,” François Legault, Quebec’s premier said today. This meant that people returning home from international travel were not warned to self-isolate, increasing the possibility of the spread of the virus through Quebec’s communities. On Friday, Legault announced another 392 cases, as well as another 10 deaths.

One of the reasons Quebec has been able to identify so many cases is that it has decentralized its testing system into a network of at least 10 regional laboratories, explained Howard Njoo, Canada’s deputy chief public health officer, in today’s press conference. In contrast, Ontario has a backlog of some 10,000 tests, due, in part, to a shortage of chemicals needed for the tests as well as not enough labs. It takes four or five days to get results. Right now, testing is done in four public health labs as well as two commercial ones and eight hospital labs, though the province expects that to expand to upward of 30 sites by mid-April.

With 2,021 cases and 18 deaths, “Quebec is on pause right now,” Legault said. He reminded everyone that Quebeckers have to remain at home, except to get or give essential services like groceries or health care. Even then, everyone has to stay apart from each other.

Bringing forward yet another link from @Trudie in the last thread.

I much appreciate this article and the Mayor’s honesty and realism, moo:

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti warns of mass death, condemns 'false hope,' and tells us his city will be on lockdown for another 2 months — and to 'be prepared for longer'

Bringing this important article forward from the last thread, thanks @Trudie for the link:

Shoppers beware: Grocery stores have heightened risks for COVID-19

you read my mind! Was just looking for this.

yesterday he called Governor Whitmer "That woman in Michigan" ( live TV)

Is there a point to this? Michigan is getting aid, isn't that the important thing?

Mayor says “Listen up Dip$hits”!!!!

ROTF!!!

Walton's mayor urges citizens to stay home in explicit online rant

Ya know, Walton is comprised of a few thousand people.
It lies close to Cinci, The mayor must be terrified, most of the Waltonette’s must work across the state line & actually consider themselves Ohioans. The few not employed in OH prob’ come south to Toyota or Lexmark, but shop and entertain in OH.
His comment about ‘knowing things’ is what people must pay attention to, lol. KY is relative low on reported cases. Most of our tests go to out of state labs and have yet to be included in our briefings. Moo

New York may fine or permanently close houses of worship where the police find congregations this weekend, Mayor Bill de Blasio said.
