We are in the same state as you...can’t believe they won’t even release the county. It’s not like they are posting names and addresses but a county would be nice to know (though our region doesn’t have a confirmed case I am positive it’s already here)
Well, the inevitable happened and now Michigan has 2 cases of coronavirus.Michigan. I think we're corona free still, last I checked.
Close to Nashville here. College students are going to online instruction in several cases, some schools and buildings have closed for cleaning. Our small hometown just closed schools today for the rest of this week and they will return after spring break.
Stores are out of hand sanitizer and some are low on TP.
My daughter had clinicals at the ER yesterday and it was full of people thinking they have the virus. The ER here doesn’t have test kits so they tested for normal flu and sent them home mostly. I think we are up to 7 or so confirmed cases statewide. I haven’t kept up today because now my daughter is sick with some type of flu.
That’s crazy! They just want to close their eyes and repeat “if we don’t test it can’t be proven”. It causes more anxiety and fear for speculation and the unknown to run crazy instead of just being honest and saying “we have x cases that are suspected, x have been tested, and x results are negative/positive/pending. They are being treated with precautions to lessen chance of spread”Yes! I think we need to know.
We have 2 major hospitals in our community. I just found out from a reliable source (someone who works at one of the hospitals) that a local nurse from the other hospital has been fired for claiming on Facebook that there are patients at both hospitals who are suspected to have COVID-19 but the higher ups don’t want them to be officially tested because, if the tests are positive, they’ll have to inform the Health Dept & CDC & it’ll cause a widespread panic & school closures in our community.
When a person I know who works at one of those hospitals found out, she went to her supervisor who said basically, “I can neither confirm nor deny,”. But the supervisor did confirm that there have been patients at both hospitals who have been & are being tested.
We have 7 cases in our state, & they’re no longer releasing where the cases are.

Also in NE Ohio. I stopped at Target on my way home last night to get a few things and as you say, the shelves where Lysol wipes, sanitizer, etc. would have been, were completely empty. It was eerie.I live in North East Ohio, about 1 hour south of Cleveland. My wife travels twice a week into Cleveland to her offices. The county which Cleveland is located now has the first 3 confirmed cases of Coronavirus in Ohio. The Governor has now declared a state of emergency. Ohio State has cancelled classes and will be going remote. Kent State University has cancelled classes and is going remote. My wife is now being told to work remote from home and if she travels outside of North East Ohio she has to inform her company. Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden both cancelled their rallies in Cleveland this evening. The MAC conference tournament has announced they will hold the tournament as planned but without any fans. Walmart's and Targets are selling out of sanitizer, hand soap, bottled water, and Lysol. Yep, nothing abnormal here in North East Ohio.
I don't know where you are but must be close to me as we are also an hour south (Stark County). Our school district just emailed parents to let them know school will remain open as of now, but to prepare for remote learning, and all trips, concerts, anything basically other than the actual school day has been canceled until further notice. My daughter was supposed to leave next Wed. for an orchestra trip to Chicago, my step-son to NYC for a theatre trip the week after that, both canceled. Kids are so disappointed, they've been planning and fundraising since last year! I am of course hoping to get my money refunded! That can go toward our own trip down the road.I live in North East Ohio, about 1 hour south of Cleveland. My wife travels twice a week into Cleveland to her offices.

How is it possible that the hopsital doesn't have any test kits? I thought they were supposed to ship them out so that by Monday everyone could be tested.
Normal except guards in the paper products isle watching the toilet paper. I tried to take a pic but was told not to. I love it.No outbreak here. Less than 10 cases. But it’s still raining. We do have a large elderly population that can quickly overwhelm the hospitals here though.
It is very common around here for people to eat 10+ meals out a week. Not sure what will happen if they need to prepare their own food for 2-4 weeks. Will they lose weight? Or gain weight from eating 10 bags of Doritos and 30 frozen pizzas?
Yeah, I don't really want MORE people touching my food or food containers.Uber Eats, Post Mates, Grub Hub, Door Dash all deliver
