A very good idea to help restaurants. Let them purchase in bulk from their restaurant distributors and sell at a profit to consumers for curb side pickup.

Should allow food, toilet paper, paper towels, whatever.

South Florida has all the ingredients for a wildfire on this thing:

—Lots of tourists (spring break) bring the virus from all over the country
—Poorly prepared hospitals
—State late to begin social distancing
—No masks
