Apple Park employees told to shelter in place as San Francisco enacts coronavirus lockdown

And restaurants, bars etc., have been ordered to shut down where I am located, but I am going outside soon to get some take out, because they havent shut that down yet.

To be honest, I'm not that worried about this whole thing, though I am prepared and am well stocked up on all sorts of items. I even had some masks lying around that I had before the virus ever came, but I'm not using those when I go outside, because I think it looks ridiculous. We're not talking about the black plague here.

Nothing will stop me from getting my Indian food for dinner tonight.

1) Hopefully looking ridiculous shouldn't play into it. If you do have to be around people -and- you are sick -and/or- you are immunocomprised, then a mask may be a reasonable precaution.

2) I went into Home Depot in late January to buy a replacement 3M 6001 cartridges for the crew working on my home improvements. I do the precision stuff myself but hire out for the grunt work, like sanding off all the old paint. They were out of everything. I was able to still find them on Amazon (at a normal price) so I bought them there. I guess I need to have some backups of those, too, in my emergency pack.

3) Indian food take out? If that's what everyone is earring then it's no wonder everyone is buying up all the TP. :smiley: 

...wondering if grocery stores will be considered 'essential services'?

1) I agree that if anybody is sick or has any symptoms, then they should be taking precautions so that they don't infect others. If anybody is sick though, then they shouldn't even be going outside. They should isolate inside.

2) Yes, there have been insane amounts of hoarding these past few weeks and many places are sold out of many items. Amazon and ebay have basically banned the selling of many types of items related to the virus, because of price gouging. There was some moron who had bought 17,000 bottles of hand sanitizer who tried to sell them on ebay, to of course inflated prices and ebay banned them, so the moron is stuck with his 17,000 bottles.

3) I love Indian food, though I don't eat it all that often. I am well stocked up on TP though, so no worries here.
