Gov. Northam issues 'stay at home' order for Virginians amid COVID-19 outbreak
WHSV ^ | Mar 30, 2020 | Caleb Stewart

It, essentially, means that Virginians can only leave home for food, supplies, work, medical care, or exercise/fresh air purposes. Only leave home if you have an essential reason to do so — Going to visit a friend for a poker game would not be essential. Going to visit a friend to help care for them because they have a broken leg would be essential. Exercise common sense about what is or isn't essential, and if it isn't, then don't go out. You're still free to leave the house to get groceries or go to the pharmacy. You're also still free to go on a run or go for a hike, so long as you're following social distancing. But if you're not doing something essential and if you're not following social distancing orders, then just don't do it. “Our message to Virginians is clear: stay home. We know this virus spreads primarily through human-to-human contact, and that’s why it’s so important that people follow this order and practice social distancing," Northam said.

The ultimate cosmic irony is that as we are victimized by a Chicom pathogen we are simultaneously assaulted by Chicom-style martial law.

A wise man once asked the question: "What the hell is this, Russia?"

The Governor's office: "Virginians would be delivered to their houses. Virginians would be kept comfortable. Virginians would be resuscitated if that’s what the governor and the Democrats desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the attorney general and the governor.”

He didn’t impose any fines or penalties.

Respectfully, he did. The order specifies a Class 1 misdemeanor. From the Virginia Code:

§ 18.2-11. Punishment for conviction of misdemeanor.

The authorized punishments for conviction of a misdemeanor are:

(a) For Class 1 misdemeanors, confinement in jail for not more than twelve months and a fine of not more than $2,500, either or both.
