I have a feeling it will happen here in Canada very soon. The most damage would hurt the local cafes.

DW was listening to an interview by some health official that advises Trump last night. And he was saying he and others are recommending to Trump that mandate 48hour or longer house-restriction nationwide. That so far trump has resisted.
 
I would not go to Mass but if I did hopefully AF would host me for a drink .
 
Rumors are Canada will be shutting down to non residents . That would hurt the economy there a great deal I think .
 
How is this "mandate" even considered legal when most states constitutions forbid governments from denying freedom of assembly?
 
This better not get announced in Indiana. My birthday is tomorrow and I plan on going out to eat to celebrate by the end of the week.

Most likely they have declared states of emergency, which probably allows it.
 
This is a tough one. Many people can’t lose income. I’d assume that employees could get expedited UI.

I wonder if some landlords would share in the burden if a business is temporarily closed down? Perhaps this order makes that more likely?

I have seen some local utilities say they will not shut off utilities during the crisis which is fine until it is over, but it's not like people who have been unemployed are suddenly going to have funds to catch up.

If this lasts for long there are going to be a huge number of very financially hurt people. When studies have shown that over half the country would have to go into debt to handle a $500 emergency, I think this counts as an emergency. Businesses will also be hurting. I can't imagine how much corned beef for St Patty day festivities is going to go to waste at every local bar.

I can mail out notices to the two guys renting my two rentals that if the pay me all the money they owe me from years prior out of tax refunds I will wave June & July rent after I pay May property tax .LOL

[h=1]Gov. Walz closes restaurants and bars until March 27[/h]

[h=1]Walz closes all MN restaurants, bars to public. Also: fitness clubs, theaters, more. Delivery and curbside pickup OK.[/h]
[FONT=&quot]Gov. Tim Walz on Monday closed all Minnesota restaurants and bars to the public in response to the coronavirus pandemic.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Also closed: movie theaters, fitness clubs, gyms, cafes, bowling alleys, bingo halls, hookah bars, arcades, and country clubs — to name a few of a wide range of closures of businesses where people gather and can spread germs.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]“We’re seeing people still congregate in large numbers,” Walz said, emphasizing that Minnesota is entering a crucial window for slowing the spread of COVID-19. “We need to stop congregating.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The order goes into effect at 5 p.m. Tuesday and extends to 5 p.m. March 27 — although Walz said he expects he will likely order the closures to last beyond that.[/FONT]
