JAPAN
The number of coronavirus infections in Japan increased to 698 as of 20:00 p.m. on Friday after 22 more cases were reported earlier in the day. The data was compiled by local governments and the health ministry.
In addition, 697 people from the Diamond Princess cruise ship have been infected, and 14 cases have been confirmed among people who returned from China’s Hubei Province on chartered flights.
Twenty-six people have died. Nineteen of them were infected in Japan and the other seven had been on the cruise ship.

Thank you both for the good points.
Friend just sent a pic from a Sam’s Club in San Antonio.
No toilet paper at Sam’s on de Zavala. Said HEB was also out.
Yep- I remember.
It’s a toss up.
If Pence hasn’t caught the virus by now, he is a miracle of nature... :-(
Understandable; I have found myself giving a wide berth around the elderly in stores lately.
I think he’s held pressers and has been on news shows?
What do you think this will look like?
Asking because I need to go to lumber yard and garden center beforehand
What would happen in a fed lockdown other than schools and stuff like that closing? No mail? Banks closed? What else?
S.KOREA
Good news - it looks like their hard work testing, contract tracing, screening, etc., is paying off
SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea reported more recoveries from the coronavirus than new infections on Friday for the first time since its outbreak emerged in January, as a downward trend in daily cases raised hopes that Asia’s biggest epidemic outside China may be slowing.
Scroll halfway down to see the video of Tom Hanks with Wilson at a game.
I knew this “My wife Rita Wilson and I have coronavirus” was suspicious. Who refers to their wife by the last name in several tweets? That’s rather demeaning like she’s a nobody that has to be explained. Whether they are infected or not, their PR guy is running the show.
SAUDI ARABIA

good. looks like i found an interview he did on CNN 22hours ago. Looked good and healthy. Thank God.
SINGAPORE
Singapore will implement additional precautionary measures to slow the transmission of the COVID-19 virus. These include travel advisories against all non-essential travel and border restrictions for Italy, France, Spain and Germany, as well as additional social distancing measures within Singapore.
I have been predicting a bunch of multi-layered quarantines:
—Very local—keep unauthorized people away from health care workers and facilities—military style perimeters
-—Hot spots—lots of positives—keep locals in and non-locals out
—States—state lines roadblocks. This is to allow the states to get a handle on cases to protect their health care facilities
—Others as needed on ad hoc basis.
These would all be announced at the state level, one at a time.
Needless to say (these days the public officials are so brain dead that maybe nothing is needless to say :-( ), the airports would be closed.
Autria just announce lock downs today. (business and schools)
France started shutting down schools
Bavaria, Germany has started shutting down schools
I think Spain will be the next country to lock down like Italy.
What do you think this will look like?

Aren’t you sick and self-quarantining?
FNC showed people walking in and out of the 1 mile containment zone.
Go into the tp business.
