Thursday, nine-days ago, I was in Thai Square, and it was pretty empty. I suspect it started with "Chinese," and quickly became (rightly or wrongly) "Asian." Last night was La Chaumière (available early, but quickly became full), before that was Rooster & Owl (full), Green Almond Pantry for lunch (pretty full), Thompson's Italian (fairly full), and Anju (quite full) - these, too, shall become less-and-less crowded in the near future, although a couple of these will be among the last to thin out.

Here's an easy way to keep tabs (no pun intended) on the progress of COVID-19. Go to the World Health Organization home page. Click on the main article, currently labeled "Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Outbreak." Shortcut: Click on the "Situation Report" tabs on this page. Today's report is #34, yesterday's is #33, etc. Each report will open in a new tab on your screen, and once a bunch of them are open, you can easily click-thru the tabs and compare the daily statistics (they're all in the exact same place, so you don't even need to move your eyes). It's troubling that in Hubei (the original location), there are now over 64,000 cases, and over 2,300 deaths. --- A very interesting article: "Who Is Patient Zero in the Coronavirus Outbreak?" by Fernando Duarte on bbc.com

I cannot imagine dining indoors. It is an extreme risk activity. I feel for the bunsiness who because there is not real rescue going on. I lament the workers who are trying to survive on unemployment and $1200 and must go back to work or lose the unemployment. I seee the pictures of restaurants over crowded, with people not wearing masks {vp pence for esample} not we ring masks and am thinking how we came to this. We are putting businesses and workers in an untenable position because the gutless politicians won't actually prvide relief.

Open Call for Help for Supplies
curiouskitkatt posted a topic in Open Forum - No Topic Is Off-Limits
Please remove this post if inappropriate or outside guidelines. I know our purpose here is to share our food & beverage recommendations & experiences, but considering what is going on, I am suggesting that we post resources that may be able to help. Im not talking about soliciting financial contributions, but rather resources or contacts to companies that can help. There is a dire need for Personal Protective Equipment. Healthcare workers are risking their well being by reusing protective gear. This puts so many people at risk. The supply of PPE is near depletion, and hospitals are reaching out to the general public for help. If you know of any resources , please share. Our outreach could make a difference. Thinking outside the proverbial box is imperative . I implore you to help if you can. If you have any suggestions as to other ways we as a community can help, please share.

Sichuan Jin River is closed for at least a couple of weeks (they said there hadn't been much carry-out business). Has anyone had good carry-out from other DC-area Chinese restaurants that are still doing business?
