I was at Home Depot today to pick up a new toilet fill valve that I screwed up installing. There was a lady in front of me with an oxygen concentrator on...

Why on earth would you be out, if you had to rely on that to survive?

That's why we are doomed as a society, too many functional idiots walking around.

I saw the same thing a week or so ago... two different ladies, both on walkers and with their air tanks in tow... My only guess is that they must not have anyone that would/could help them with their shopping.

Do the supermarkets in your area offer delivery? Maybe that word needs to be spread by the media, instead of the hysteria.

I am not sure about delivery, but they all have online ordering with curbside pick up now

In my area. There is a 7 day back log to order food at some markets.

The state of Pa. is locking down the whole state, not some counties as before.

We are making changes in the store. Starting tomorrow. We will limit the number of people in the store at one time. Closing down garden. One way in. One way out. Walmart is making all of their aisles one way.

My county has 14 cases and 1 death. The death was in a nursing home about 1.5 miles from work. So now everyone at work is on pins and needles.

Perhaps this will make it real enough for those still doubting the severity, to take notice.

Official projections yesterday had between 100,000 and 240,000 US deaths to the virus.

Until this map is a uniform shade of dark yellow, the lockdown period really has not begun.
