Doctors are hoarding medications touted as possible coronavirus treatments by writing prescriptions for themselves and family members, according to pharmacy boards in states across the country.
The stockpiling has become so worrisome in Idaho, Kentucky, Ohio, Nevada, Oklahoma, North Carolina, and Texas that the boards in those states have issued emergency restrictions or guidelines on how the drugs can be dispensed at pharmacies. More states are expected to follow suit. Source |

It interests me to know the amount of asymptomatic carriers and pts. Some are speculating there could be an iceberg of those under the surface which wouldn't be good initially. |

Sedgwick County issues 30 Day Stay at Home order
WICHITA, Kan. (KAKE) - Sedgwick County has issued a stay-at-home order, with many exceptions, in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus. The county now has four confirmed cases. Lists of exceptions and essential businesses The County Commission discussed and voted 3-2 during a special meeting Monday afternoon. It sent the measure to the county's top heath officer, Dr. Garold Minns, who signed the order on Tuesday. It goes into effect at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday and will be in effect for 30 days, but that is subject to change. Meitzner said Monday that the order is not a lockdown or shutdown. It's an encouragement to stay at home. Similar orders for Atchison, Dickinson, Douglas, Doniphan, Johnson, Leavenworth, Lyon, Miami and Wyandotte counties went into effect Tuesday. "These stay-at-home orders require that residents not venture out unless they are engaged in activities that are essential to the health and safety of themselves, family members or friends," Gov. Laura Kelly said Monday. "These essential activities include, but are not limited to, seeking medical attention, purchasing food and filling up gas tanks." Grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations and health care facilities will remain open. Examples of essential businesses and services that will remain open include critical governmental services, infrastructure projects, childcare, health care, grocery stores, pharmacies and delivery/carry-out/drive-through services from restaurants. Outdoor activities like going on a run would also be allowed while maintaining social distancing. Sedgwick County has four confirmed cases of the virus. There are now at least 84 confirmed cases in Kansas, most of them in the Kansas City area. A statewide ban on public gatherings of more than 10 people also went into effect Tuesday. Currently, 89 of Kansas' 105 counties do not have a confirmed positive case, which is why a statewide shelter-in-place order "is not yet a necessary course of action," Gov. Kelly said Monday. Below are the lists of exceptions and essential businesses, according to Monday's draft of the order. Exceptions to Sedgwick County's stay-at-home order include: To engage in activities or perform tasks essential to their health and safety, or to the health and safety of their family or household members, including pets. To obtain necessary services for themselves and their family or household members. To engage in outdoor activities with social distancing. To perform work at an essential business. To care for a family member or pet in another household. To work for or obtain health-care operations. To provide any services or perform work necessary for essential infrastructure. Essential businesses include: Health-care operations, essential infrastructure and essential government functions. Grocery stores, farmer's markets, produce stands, convenience stores, other businesses that sell food. Food cultivation businesses. Animal-processing businesses. Businesses that provide food, shelter, and social services. Media services. Gas stations and auto supply/repair. Banks and financial institutions. Hardware stores. Services such as plumbers, electricians, exterminators, construction, janitorial, security staff, HVAC, moving services, lawn care. Businesses providing mailing and shipping services, including post office boxes. Educational institutions. Laundromats, dry cleaners and laundry service providers. Restaurants, but only for drive-through and carryout services. Businesses that supply products needed to work from home. Businesses that ship or delivery groceries. Taxis, aircraft, commercial transportation and logistics providers. Home-based care for seniors, adults and children. Residences and shelters for seniors, adults and children. Professional services: lawyers, accountants, real-estate services, insurance services. Child-care facilities, in groups of 10 or fewer children. Mortuary, cremation and burial services. Hotels and motels, though it cannot be used for conventions or large gatherings. Manufacturing companies, distributor and supply chain companies providing essential services for a variety of industries. Leaders and employees of religious institutions. |

My wife and I are seriously doing our part, but we still have to exit the house. But we are doing the best we can to stay the hell away from others.
I do think NYC is going to be worse than LA though. While they are both huge cities, LA isn't condensed like New York, and most here don't use public transportation. |
