Report from NYC:

Streets empty, a siren every now and then, lots of businesses obviously suffering with two signs in the window: WE ARE HIRING! and CLOSED.

The doorman gave me the report from the neighborhood: no one ill in our building of 90 apartments (that we know of, of course), one person ill three buildings down, people in our building from a synagogue that had to be tested are all negative.

Everything still pretty much available. Hand sanitizer signs are back up, along with the others for TP and masks. People observing the 6-foot rule, walking out into the street so as not to walk too close to you.

I’m glad the governor gave out that mental health volunteer number. Some people are going to need it before this is over.

In general, New Yorkers glad for an opportunity to show they care about one another.

I was believing the report for the most part until you said this.

how is your building and others handling the elevator situation? Covered with plastic? using a chopstick or toothpick to hit the buttons? nothing?

(remembering the elevator spitters in Wuhan)
