I am somewhat surprised by the level of support for arresting anyone moving about without official permission
Until further notice, going to the Dairy Queen drive thru is now Attempted Mass Murder
inside every American is an asshole vice principal itching to bust out and demand to see your hall pass
Don't get me wrong, an obedient public following government orders will definitely slow the further spread of coronavirus. It will also definitely mean further government orders.

A lot of people are commenting on this, I have some thoughts.
First, privacy: there's no way in hell the NY Times got access to raw individual cell phone data. This was almost certainly based on anonymized, aggregated data. Note that map is county coded, which is likely how the Times received it from cell providers.
*or possibly apps that have access to location; still, no privacy issues if provided in anonymized, aggregated form. Let's say you live in Acme County, Pennsyltucky. The Times might know total before/after travel for everybody in Acme County, but no idea where you've been.

*bzzzzzzzz* 🎶I got you babe 🎶

Time for another installment of #DavesCarIDService
Here's a nice one to start off: these GIs are enjoying a well earned rest along the Champs Elysees after a hard day's liberating. On left is obviously a Jeep, on right is what I believe is a 1938ish Renault Primaquatre.
Sometimes that junker in the woods is actually a secret treasure. I am pleased to inform you that's a 1932 Ford Fordor sedan, and as is, worth >$2000. Parted out properly, at least twice that; firewall alone (if solid) will bring $500+.

Even if you believe that the lives of incarcerated people are less valuable than yours and those of the free public, it is the fact that prisons & jails will act as a viral reservoir that should make you deeply frightened. They are not an island; they are central to communities.
In New York today, the city reported the first COVID-19 death connected to the correction system. It will not be the last.
In Ohio, some county jails are heeding the dire warnings of the experts. "The Cuyahoga County Court in Ohio is looking to release hundreds of inmates from the Cuyahoga County Jail Saturday morning due to coronavirus concerns" wjhl.com/coronavirus/in…

"Curbs on transport in Wuhan remain in place, and schools in the province would remain closed until further notice... New infections in Hubei continued to stabilize, with new cases declining for the sixth day. All 13 new cases in Hubei were recorded in Wuhan."
"The [Chinese] economy is still operating at about 25% below its usual levels"
This recent photograph from Wuhan articulates how disconnected from normal life the conditions have become — despite progress in slowing the epidemic and restarting the economy. Food rations are delivered by garbage truck.

#NOW: Hundreds have taken to the Capitol steps demanding witnesses be allowed to testify in the Senate’s impeachment trial. Three warnings from the Capitol police are up and arrests are about to start. Leading them is Rev. William Barber.

#SwarmTheCapitol
The view from up top before the cops declared an unlawful assembly. Might be the first time I’ve seen an impeachment-related protest fill the whole approach to the Capitol’s east lawn. Though only a few dozen are risking arrest, the rest backed off.

#SwarmTheCapitol
Article 2, Section 4 of the Constitution (aka the impeachment process) in gigantic banner form, unfurled in the shadow of the Capitol rotunda - and quickly seized by the police.

It’s probably a good time to remember that the 2002 SARS outbreak killed 774 people across 37 countries and it had a 10% mortality rate. This one looks less deadly, but also looks ripe to — and actively is — going global. on.ft.com/2u6G7zV
Umm, any of y'all have room in your bunker? The Chinese government was withholding the severity of this outbreak & transmission capability, and the number of coronavirus cases has exploded😷
