The Governor of Michigan issued a lockdown order. All employees of non-essential businesses have been instructed to stay home until at least April 13. However some businesses such as liquor stores (lolwut?) are exempt. What's happening in your state?

Lockdown as of March 23, 11:59 PM. Got you beat by one minute.
As of midnight I’ve officially become entitled to a $150 bonus for working through this madness. That’s some sweet slap-in-the-face money right there.

California’s been locked down for a few days now - but don’t worry, no one’s listening. It’s just a nice vacation for folks to get together and hang out. *face palm*
The newest problem now is, Trump tonight said he expects the US to be getting back to work in a few weeks. Our CA governor also said today, he expects our lock down to last another 2-3 months. Not sure who needs to get their head out of their butt, but it’d be fantastic if everyone would get on the same page. The longer this carries on, the longer it takes me to start getting work back, and the worse our economy tanks. I really wish people would just sit at home for 2-3 weeks. I’m equating this to being in elementary school and being in time out as a class for one kid’s actions and the teacher keeps adding minutes to the time out because the other kids won’t listen.

Same thing's happening in Australia. All registered and licensed clubs, places of worship, licensed premises in hotels and pubs, gyms, indoor sporting venues, entertainment venues, cinemas, nightclubs, casinos, restaurants and cafes have had to close down until further notice (restaurants and cafes can still offer home delivery and take-away). Shopping centres, childcare services, supermarkets, hairdressers, beauticians, petrol stations, chemists, bottle shops and food delivery services will remain open. Some schools will also remain open, but parents are being encouraged to keep their kids at home.

Lockdown here in Scotland and you can only go out under these conditions I wondered why my asthma pumps never arrived from the chemist delivery driver yesterday and I could not get through to the chemist shop to find out why so I contacted my surgery and was told I will have to pick up the pumps myself as the driver had been found posotive with the virus and is now in isolation.
Lucky our son has a car as he is going to drive me to the chemists and the shops if needed once a day, also I have my COPD pump and heart tablets due within the next 2 weeks so it looks like I will have to rely on our son again.

I just hope cops are open minded enough in my area not to harass us driving to work. I had 55 hours this week, 4 to 6000 piece trucks and shelves completely empty of course. As soon as I go back to working retail this happens.

My city has been slow rolling towards it. Last week was restaurants moving to carryout/drive-thru only. Tomorrow all non-essential businesses are closed. Not quite a shelter in place, but close to it.

Not me, not yet. But I've been told, for me it will be a short trip.

Our schools are closed as are some things like salons. However, our state is not focused on how to end the pandemic by ordering a shelter in place. They think it will peak on its own and stop. *SIGH*

Connecticut has been in lockdown since last night, 8:00 PM EDT. Nothing out of the usual happening at the moment.

I'm in California so our state was the first to issue a stay-at-home order since last week. I work in the medical field though, and have been going to work each day. My office manager gave me the option of staying home, but I don't want my patients, especially the preemie babies and special needs kids to end up in the ER when I can easily treat them for things like an ear infection in the office. As for staying home on my days off (Tuesday) and the weekends, I'm a home bird anyway, so it does not bother me in the least. I've lots of good books to read, intricate patterns to color, Pediatric board questions to answer and my three cats to cuddle with. Oh and of course the endless cleaning and laundry to be done keeps me totally occupied as well. Everything is out of my hands, so I'm just trying to make the best of a bad situation.
