If You Missed WWII                                       < 👨 >
    
   You're getting a taste of national "all hands on deck."  

   Twenty NY City hotels now are hospitals for non-virus patients. 
The U.S. is close to 7 million unemployment claims. 

   Years ago, we were satisfied to disembark a cruise ship after five days. 
Nine ships are still at sea after about four weeks. 

   A trooper in Minnesota stopped a woman going 85 mph. When he learned she is a cardiologist rushing from Boston to Duluth to serve a need there, he gave her five N95 masks and sent her on her way.

   Dr. Anthony Fauci is becoming so famous he may need a security detail. He did get a bobblehead. Cities try to get the homeless off the streets. Taiwan is donating 10 million masks, 2 million of them coming to the U.S. 

   Assisted living facilities are coping. Some residents are confused. 

   Prisoners find it impossible to socially distance. Cook County prison (Chicago) went from two cases to 101 plus 12 employees in four days or so. Rikers Island freed 650, temporarily. Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) released half of their inmates. Federal prisons are not releasing. Inmates are confined to cells or quarters. (And we think we have it tough.) A women's prison in McLoud, OK has sewn more than 1,000 masks for the cause.
