At this point, Michigan is reporting no coronavirus cases. Doesn't mean it isn't here

I've seen absolutely no instances of people piling up items in shopping carts. Yet.

I'm definitely going to double down on making sure my immune system is maintained.

Damn, I hate living like this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently seven people were tested and came back negative. I was at a Kroger in Columbus today, and it was business as usual, no hoarding, shelves as well stocked as this store is ever stocked.

I’m still seeing hand sanitizers in the stores. No hoarding bottled water or anything. It could turn in a dime however. Spring break is the thing that I’m afraid will bust it wide open. My husband, son and I are going to Portland, OR to see Lewis Black perform. I’ve so been looking forward to it...now I’m not so sure. We are driving instead of flying.

I'm going to stock up on a few things, just to limit how often I need to head to the store. This time of year I spend far more time in the yard and gardens, which is a nice way to self-isolate.

There's slow clamping down. One site that had up-to-date state info is stuck at Jan. 31st. You have to dig. I had to get UT info from NYT. UT sources were wrong.

She wasn't going to go because she has a cold, not unusual at this time of year in northern Wisconsin. She said 8 of the 10 of them in the waiting room wore masks. They all have colds.

We have both been sick most of the winter. Since we were both sick before cv, neither of us are high risk. But she and my husband both work with the public. And she has an 8 year old.

But I have a niggling of concern, over 60 with autoimmune and lung problems, she being pregnant. There was one case in WI right at the beginning. All we can do now is take as good care of ourselves as we can.

I did tell my husband I will be upset if I die before I can collect SS and the fact that it was because republicans are ignorant a** holes.
