We get ou groceries through Instacart, and I disinfect anything that goes in a fridge or freezer. The kids are unhappily doing school from home.

We're extremely wary, since my mom is 80, and I'm in my late fifties.

We're in NYS, though fortunately not in the hard hit area. We also have very accessible testing in our county, and get frequent, accurate updates on numbers of cases, numbers of hospitalized, critical and non-critical, and fatality numbers.

Even though we're not hard hit, hospitals here have had as many as 50 cases, with half in ICU, at a time, so I imagine it hasn't been easy for them.

Sorry for the dissertation, not much else to do.
