Us too. Mayor announced tonight that bars, gyms, clubs, and others will be closed or face civil fines.Dallas has closed all bars, theaters, etc for now. Restaurants pick up, drive thru or delivery only. Schools closed maybe through end of school year. I live in a neighboring county and we will probably follow suit.
Get your TP while you can:
"New York City considers a shelter-in-place order as public life is curtailed.
Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York City said that residents should prepare for the possibility of a “shelter in place” order to be announced in the next 48 hours, as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in New York City neared 1,000.
Mr. de Blasio said that a decision on such an order, which would require coordination between the city and New York State, had not been made. But he said he believed that kind of recommendation, which is in place in San Francisco, would be “the right guidance.”
New York City has already come to a halt, but a “shelter in place” recommendation would be a major escalation in restrictions on public life. The mayor did not elaborate on what a “shelter in place” order would look like in practice.
Mr. de Blasio said that the city was rushing to add more hospital beds.
By canceling elective surgeries and dismissing patients from hospitals more quickly, the city could free up about 7,000 patient beds, the mayor said. Another 1,200 to 1,300 beds could be added by taking over unused space in hospitals and converting a newly built nursing home in Brooklyn that was not yet occupied."
Bogroll? Wow, haven't heard that term in a really long time, LOLThere's yet to be a lockdown in the UK, but already, some stores (including the Disney Store) have temporarily shut down, and some fast food restaurants have gone to takeout/drive-thru only. And despite measures to ration essential items, supermarkets across the UK are still frequently selling out of bog roll, tissues and even pasta.
In an earlier post I said that Cuomo and de Blasio are constantly at odds; the mayor's Monday statement and Governor's Thursday press conference is just proof positive.Gov Cuomo says he won't do it....at least as of this afternoon when I saw a press conference. I don't see how it can't be done. NY has one of the highest infection rates. NYC and statewide I would think, especially since California has now put it in place.

I think it can and should be done as well. I do understand that NYC is one of the largest economic engines in the nation and there will be an financial price to pay but think most are willing to deal with that.
