I was about to say don't forget to tip takeout, especially since it's most likely the regular wait staff providing the service. One thing to be sure if you have kids, especially little ones who are or were in school is to keep the routine. Treat weekdays like school days if you can, and while that may be impossible or hard for some there are many sites offering educational resources for free and you can structure your days around what is in the house. Get a plan together for breakfast, activities, quiet times, etc. And let your work if you can do WAH be aware of your availability.

Personally I've got two home with me starting a routine today, prepped them last night so they would not think it's another weekend day. I've alerted my office that I will be online sporadically and for meetings when I can but expect to have my core hours shift a bit to more early AM and later PM to accomplish project work. As I've said you take whats happening outside in stride and manage your own homestead to the best of your ability.

Hopefully not to provide assistance in a global crisis.

Anyway, by the time Artist posted the link you would have to be living under a rock buried in a cave on a deserted island in the middle of the Pacific to not know that schools are closed and restaurants are only takeout at this point. If said individual under the rock in cave on deserted island in middle of Pacific ONLY had access to City Data Forum at that point then yes, it was probably a great point to call out.

I would have to say the top point is relocation to CT and the insight provided by locals.

My remark was about restaurants being open still, though in a reduced capacity.
Many of my friends reached out to me asking if my places were closed. I'm a Landlord and want everyone to succeed in these trying times....it's hard enough. My phone blew up this morning!!
Many think.....thanks to the media.....who more often than some realize......get details wrong, restaurants are closed.
