I think if and it’s a big if. If we turn into Italy then we will probably have a national shutdown. But hopefully we don’t become Italy! What’s happening in Italy is sad

We won’t be like Italy. Like I’ve said before, Italy was a ticking time bomb. This virus was a perfect storm for them unfortunately.

Anyone know a supplier that still has inventory of exam grade nitrile or latex gloves and can ship within a month? I am all out of ideas the market is slim pickings right now. I feel like I've failed at my job

My company has them but we will limit the cases you can buy.

Yes but that’s what is up in air. Teachers in TN have to work 200 days. Well obviously that is not happening and state can’t answer if they will be paid.

Home learning doesn’t count? Here in Georgia they are getting paid thankfully. My wife is a 8th grade teacher here.

Close up of President @realDonaldTrump notes is seen where he crossed out "Corona" and replaced it with "Chinese" Virus as he speaks with his coronavirus task force today at the White House. #trump #trumpnotes

The master brander at work.
 
People here in Mississippi don’t have a care in the world about this pandemic meanwhile I’m in quarantine because I was out of the country last week

I’m so surprised by all the traffic on the roads still. People are antsy and just going out to go out. Groups of teens and young kids are hanging out playing everywhere. Very little social distancing.

I really think we need to restrict non essential travel to healthcare workers, grocery and pharmacy shopping. This order can only come down from the highest office....“Guidance” and “recommendations” aren’t working. People simply aren’t staying home.

It is clear to me after driving around today, we are in trouble. Our economy is going to crater and it is going to take years to recover. There are so many people just rolling around, milling about, and acting like there is nothing going on. This is going to be a long, rolling ordeal with this half baked quasi-shutdown of random things. I don't have a lot of hope that summer will end this, and we certainly are not looking at herd immunity anytime soon.

At the current rate, we are about 1 out through the top of the first inning. Unless we depart from this current approach, we are screwed.

The superintendent told her today to plan to stay out for the school year. She isn’t happy. The home learning thing has been a pain with technology issues etc. she was told not to give homework that takes more then 30 mins a day.

Well my daughters got the official word from Campbell today, no more classes, finish the year online and graduation postponed. My oldest, a senior, just had a mini meltdown, realizing she will not see several of her friends anymore or at least until graduation whenever that is and if they can be there. Dang stupid virus

Haven't gotten that talk yet, but I'm betting we aren't going back in April. I'm a first year teacher (been in education for 12 years before becoming a teacher) and this is NOT how I wanted to end the first year! I was looking forward to celebrating with my 3rd graders! I got my fingers crossed this whole thing isn't as bad as it could be!
