Informative article (with lots of math and charts) on how well social distancing can blunt the impact of COVID-19's spread and lethality: Coronavirus: Why You Must Act Now

We're prepared for a couple of weeks at home if need be. DW is home today, attending via teleconferencing a meeting that (earlier this week) was scheduled as a live gathering. We have no social plans for this weekend or next. I will be out sometime today (off-peak) to pick up a few items I'd like to have in the house if we cannot get out. And I've asked the rest of the board of our dancing club to think about cancelling dances. Our next one is three weeks away; no idea where we will be by then (medically speaking). Other dance groups in the state (even outstate where no cases of COVID-19 have been reported) already have cancelled their dances (scheduled closer than ours). It just seems prudent though I know a significant component of our dancers are not of a mind to worry about it (despite being in target demographics for infection/death).

We are living in "interesting" times....
