Just found out this morning I had a death in family. Not related to covid-19! But does anyone know if they will even allow a funeral right now? Any answers would be helpful thanks.

Sorry for your loss

Yes as long as the numbers fall within your current states gathering mandate. In NC you can but the numbers have to be below 100 people

A church member dies yesterday and the funeral home said only immediate family will be allowed. The family has decided to cremate and have a memorial service at a later date.

It seems if we’re heading for an inevitable nationwide lockdown like CA and NY are doing, then why wait? Everyday that goes by seems to be spreading virus even more.

I was just basically quoting what the actual executive order states. I guess that's an individual funeral home decision but it's not the requirement
 
I read an article just now that mentioned that the cases in Washington state have largely leveled off. Anyone got a link to state by state graphs?

Know why? Folks there finally got scared and rational as a result, and they ain't out spreading it ... so sad it takes a punch in the nose for some people ...

A lot of researchers like in the article you posted earlier believe this but I’m skeptical of it. The virus is pretty much already embedded within the country and even if it slows the spread a little bit how broad it is I think will off set the disease killed by the heat.
 
Walmart here is packed, like it's Christmas Eve..... I'm thinking a combination of rumors of shut down and change in store hours. Reducing the amount of time the store is open seems to have helped pack more people in during the day

Yep. Someone I know last night passed along a rumor that the national guard was going to be called in to lock down the state and everyone better get groceries and gas while you still can. They had a source of course.

I guess you are speaking specifically of Ga? Keep hearing rumors here but Gov and his task force keep shooting them down

The best thing is not just it slows the spread but if it reduces severity. Let this thing propagate like crazy if it's weak enough to not cause severe symptoms so we can build herd immunity by fall.
 
Interesting that the NCDHHS hasn't really updated their numbers today and I know for a fact (seen the memos) of 6 new cases in 3 different counties (rural areas that had none prior to today), also another confirmed community spread and many test results from last week finally coming in (so larger areas have to have seen a jump). Yet nothing from them yet.... I have a feeling come Monday our numbers here are going to spike massively and the Gov will pull the plug, just speculation nothing concrete

Sounds to me like Roy Cooper was close to pulling the trigger but pulled back at the last minute.

Does not make any difference as we have to report to work regardless even though we have capability to work from home and do work nights and weekend projects from home

Work from home will not be allowed due to COV-19 per our CEO.
