Likely they will be closed.

FWIW, some of the primitives are waking up. I've been trying to convince one it was serious for the past two weeks and he all but unfriended me over it. Today he's yelling that the order was necessary because idiots refused to self-isolate. Another (not in Ohio, but same ilk) commented a day or two ago that he didn't necessarily believe the "hype," but he was following orders.

(One has the same autoimmune disorder my daughter does - AND - is post-transplant. Such an idiot to not be concerned before. The other was caring for someone with the same condition as my spouse. Otherwise I would not be friends with either of these. But occasionally, my willingness to hide my belief that they are idiots and speak to them like reasonably intelligent human beings makes a difference.)

And showing luxury condos to bored morons is an essential business. My son just got the call that they are still working. No shutting down although virtual tours can be given to potential clients and other nearby management businesses have been doing that, but not the company my son works for. He said their street is a ghost town-they’re pretty much the only company open. Pretty sure corporate masters won’t have public contact. Told my son the peons should be afforded the same measures. The apartment complexes they own all across town have locked the office doors so people can’t just wander in. The location at which my son works can’t do that. Told him to Lysol the elevator before entering w people-he told me he’d get fired if he did that. Absolutely ridiculous. I’m pissed and terrified all at the same time.
