I’ve been holding off, but I think I’m going to take vacation next week. That might be better than waiting to get shut down. I don’t know... DeWine says he doesn’t want to get to that point, but with other states doing it who knows. This is such a rock and a hard place.

Anyone know if all hotels are offering refunds? I have a paid-in-full non cancelable 8 night vacation in June, in Punta Cana.
The only email I’ve received from them is that many of their resorts are closed in Europe.
I’m not ready to cancel yet.. but if I’m out of my office most of March, I can’t really see just saying peace out again in June.

This has nothing to do with my politics, but I'm glad he has quickly and effectively taken this seriously. We have the conference on now, and he said, "I have to look back 10 years from now and know that I did everything in my power to protect the people of New York."
Not necessarily verbatim, but I appreciated the sentiment.
That's why nobody likes NE Ohio
Just cornIt wont happen right now because out glorious FDA has only approved one test that uses PCR to do the test... but there are companies in other parts of the world that are already testing methods that could be done without the same amount of lab equipment and that provide results in 15 minutes.

Who is going to PAY for it? And do you really think any lab could be bothered with testing 35,000+ people because they want to go to a theme park?

Corn? I lived in the city. No corn around me. I had to drive out to the countryside for that.
Even in the city there is corn. As a life long Clevelander I can assure we're making strides to restrict it to grocery stores only
Cleveland does have the famous Slymans corned beef sandwiches.That's why nobody likes NE Ohio
I must admit I've never had one. Was supposed to break the streak this year with some buddies. Well, you know what happened...Cleveland does have the famous Slymans corned beef sandwiches.

Check out this article from USA TODAY:
NIH chief Francis Collins on COVID-19: Best response one people would find 'too drastic'
Good read with a few new thoughts.
NIH chief Francis Collins on COVID-19: Best response one people would find 'too drastic'
NIH chief Francis Collins on COVID-19: Best response one people would find 'too drastic'
National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins says the U.S. needs to take a coronavirus approach that most people would find 'too drastic.'

I'm hoping it doesn't get to that point, considering alot of smaller suburbs (Middleburg Heights for example) have been pretty much shuttered by this. Imagine if Cleveland or say, Cinci goes down. Major crisis for OhioI’ve been holding off, but I think I’m going to take vacation next week. That might be better than waiting to get shut down. I don’t know...

Why would it be a joke? A lot of companies are offering to take PTO if someone needs it.. whether for sickness, to care for sick, or if kids are out of school, or if you’re not comfortable working right now.
Some are offering it without using your regular vacation time, some are not. Mine is in the ‘not’ category.
How in the world would that be a “ joke”?

Exactly. It looks like DeWine is really trying to avoid it, but every time another city goes down, I get a little more worried.

I think she's just talking about taking vacation / PTO days from work. Not literally, going on a vacation. All vacations are staycations now (or they should be!).
