California Governor Gavin Newsom has issued a Stay At Home order, asking residents to stay home except for trips to grocery stores, pharmacies, banks, and other essential needs.
Meanwhile, republican senators Richard Burr, Jim Inhofe, Ron Johnson, and Kelly Loeffler started selling stocks back in January after private Senate briefings from the White House about COVID-19, while reassuring the public everything would be fine. Burr and Loeffler made an estimated seven figures each. The STOCK Act, passed in 2012 under President Obama, prohibits lawmakers from doing this. Shockingly Burr voted against it.
NEW: After assuring the public about the government's coronavirus preparedness, Senate Intel chair Richard Burr, in one day, sold off up to $1.6 million is stock.

A doctor friend of mine in CT drove 3 hours to grab ten (just ten!) N95 masks. That’s how bad the situation is.

This feels severe and will be a chaotic hardship to millions. But, when you study what has happened in other countries - the devastation, the loss of life - I’m grateful for it. This will save many lives. Many loved ones. https://t.co/8qIpFHakip
