In NJ they just announced that all bars, restaurants, movie theaters, casinos, gyms and schools are closed indefinitely.

Day before St Patrick’s day.
Millions of workers will be affected.

I've been hearing this for a week. It was supposed to start at 6pm today. It's hogwash. You know that right?

ok, CDC just announced NO GATHERINGS of more than 50 people for the next 8 weeks...

holy crap, is that businesses with more than 50 employees too????? huh?

OMG....Riddle me this

WHERE ARE THE VIRAL PNEUMONIA OUTBREAKS

A Seattle nursing home is the only one that was major, that I can think of....regarding deaths? I suppose the Carnival Cruise situation could be considered an outbreak from a concentrated group? Oh, and some conference in Boston was a concentrated group, but the other confirmed cases have been mainly individually unknown on how they caught it.... yes, groups can pass it to a lot of people, all at once....

but my question at the time, for my own curiosity... was if it was now important that no groups larger than 50 should congregate, does that mean businesses like bars and movie theaters or weddings or a 60 manned office, or a party in someone's back yard? or, all of the above? would businesses with 100 workers in cubicles all on the same floor, have to close?

or was this CDC order, just for socializing?

I think Trump said today, no more than 10 should congregate. I'm in the Seattle area and starting tomorrow all restaurants have to close except for take out. Also, all bars, hair dressers, fitness centers, movies, etc. In fact just about everything will closed except drug stores and grocery stores for about two weeks.
