Government needs to foot the bill. Give these people money to keep their business afloat.

Captain Brett Crozier wrote that "[d]ecisive action is required now" to comply with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines and "prevent tragic outcomes."

 

In a four-page unaddressed letter, Crozier suggested most of the 4,000 crew members should be removed from the ship and put into 14-day individual quarantines, in keeping with the CDC's recommended guidelines for preventing infection.

All construction, in any phase, is considered essential.  Its wack as hell but theres no distinction btw someone putting in a new swimming pool in time for the summer and repairing a roof  so it doesnt rain in the bedroom.

Not here in PA.  Only emergency repairs are permitted at this time.

If I was writing a Chinese propaganda war movie, I'd say China released this on it's own people, knowing it would spread around the world, weakening every chain in the armor of a nation. Waiting for the perfect time to strike.

This though, would never happen..
