Wow... that's HUGE. I couldn't imagine what having literally
zero in person classes would have been like as a student. I have
no doubt the IT infrastructure to support this kind of thing has
improved dramatically in the last 6-7 years though.

Its over
COVID-19 has officially ruined the month of March, and probably
the entire spring.
.... and if the market continues to react in such a way... It
may ruin a lot of lives also.
F-U COVID-19!

Alot of over reaction to this virus. College and pro sports ,
Broadway theater , schools , parades very chaotic probably
worse than the disease itself.

Perhaps in hindsight it will look this way, but as things
currently stand? I disagree. We don't know what we're up against
and this thing could easily mutate into something much more
severe. The good that I think will come of this is that telework
will become more prevalent in the country, and people will be
better prepared for diseases like this in the future. I also
hope it means China finally shuts down these damn wet-market
meat markets where all these damn diseases originate. There will
be tremendous pressure on them to do so.
