is this just for today, everyday, or until...?
The writing is on the wall.
up next martial law
The level of pandemonium the media has painted for this flu is crazy....this is going to drive small businesses out of business buckle up it's gonna get worse
Restauranteurs need to start saying "NO!". Will the police be utilized to enforce these totalitarian restrictions? It will be a great test to see how well these leaders and law enforcement believe in civil liberty.
Having them stay open for takeout is pointless. People don't go out to most restaurants just because they are hungry. They go to be social, enjoy the environment, get served, and escape the house. Its amazing how many people are "happy" to have their civil liberties stripped. Where is the outrage? Where is the banding together to refuse these totalitarian restrictions? What happened to America?
This is amazing. They are going to kill businesses. Will they excuse the tax burdens to these businesses when they can't pay? How about the lost wages for everyone? Over reaction to say the least.
There should be no gatherings at all. People need to stay at home unless for food, emergency, pharmacies.
Killing a business is better than killing people.
I have no desire to be laid up in a hospital on a ventilator.
People yet to realize how serious this is.
The methadone clinic on Newton street in Salisbury is jam packed shoulder to shoulder (literally) with people, well over 300+ a day. They stopped the group meetings but people are
constantly stacked in a building a little over 4000 sq ft. Staff do not have proper protection and many patients are already immune-compromised with TB Hep C HIV AIDS exedra. You may say these people are the lowest of the low but re think that because what they are going to be are carriers of Covid- 19! Spreading it through the community. They need to close it temporarily.
Democrats LOVE closing buissnesses.
Yep FUNNY Dems didn't do this during Sars when 9000 people died.
Martial law will be next
Humans doesn't follow instructions
Protect your own....
March 16, 2020 at 11:45 AM LOLOL. I go because I am hungry and because I do not want to cook. I get take out because I am hungry and do not want to cook.
Drama much?
Open up underground
Martial law is here this is insane even workers in China have returned to work
Limit the bars to 50 people or less.
They will than be in compliance of the 50 people rule.
Is people shopping at Food Lion, Wal-Mart, Ect. Ect. Ect. Going to be limited to the 50 people gathering rule ? Can't have no more than 50 in one place at one time.
Has anyone been a restaurant when someone near you has a hacking cough or blowing their nose. That is why they are closing because of the few inconsiderate folks out there.

Mr. Wrench
The last time I was in a bar, people sit shoulder to shoulder up and down the bar. No way! You have no credentials to suggest anything. Thank God no one has to listen to you. Nope, they did the right thing. Closed the bars to keep the drunks (alcoholics) from spreading the disease.
12:18 - with that logic we should just close all doctor's offices, pharmacies, and hospitals. Whether anyone wants to believe it or not, people receiving methadone are patients and receiving medical service from certified doctors and nurses.
Stop being selfish! Act as if you spouse works in the ER. We need to get ahead of a possible spread so we don't overwhelm the hospitals.
Shows you that You are NOT really Free dosen't it !!!
Just like JURY Duty !!! At least it was cancelled for the month
Alot of law changes needed regarding that one !!!!
Should be against Everyone's Rights to be Forced to do it !!
Just like Obama Care !!!!
So now grocery customers will wait outside in the cold until customer number 50 leaves so one more shopper can enter?
Our fat governor won't care. He can go without food for a while!
The sky is falling. What do we do when we have a real pandemic.
Sick but not the viruse people.
Time to see if small businesses will get a bailout or if America's socialist policies only apply to the rich
It is just amazing that everyone is acting as if they test positive they are going to die. Do we close everything for the flu. I can tell you now your taxes are going up once all this has settled. Who else if going to pay the Democrats overreacting and shutting everything down. Think about it.
Hogan is a jerk. He wants to look good in his last term - saving people from themselves 😂😂
How to we stop this insanity now?
And SOROS
You know that also means closing ALL fast food restaurants down to sit in customers.
Define for me a gathering of less than 50 people.
I work in a parts store. What do I do with the people that are 2 feet away from my face because they want to see me research their parts. What about the cashiers that are 2 feet away from their customers. I'll wait patiently for your reply
Really that place is FILTHY inside. All they're doing is walking up to a window and getting their methadone and then loitering around the parking lot selling drugs and stealing from the Wawa (just ask the manager). Sometimes there's only one nurse in the building. You see the Dr 1x a yr. once you enroll. He comes 1x a week to check in newbies. It's a joke. You don't even have to attend groups. It's dose and go.

Thanks for waiting. Wear a mask! You're welcome. Now cry about that. Or just ask your customers to keep their distance from you. Don't be such a drama queen.
Mr. Wrench, it's 50 people or more. Less than 50 people, stay the hell away from each other (social distancing). What's so hard for you to understand? Almost everybody in the country knows what it means...except you.
I was wondering how long that was going to take, and don't leave Langley out.
close the methadone program
This is complete nonsense. All this over 30 people infected in Maryland? People are going to get sick, some people will die. The chances of someone dying from this are about 3%. You are much, much more likely to die from:
Heart disease: one in six
Cancer: one in seven
Lower respiratory disease: one in 27
Suicide: one in 88
Opioid overdose: one in 96
Car crash: one in 103
Fall: one in 114
Gun assault: one in 285
Pedestrian incident: one in 556
Motorcycle crash: 1 in 858
The governor is literally going to make businesses and people broke because of a cold. The press conference was a debacle. He sounded like the sky was falling. Chill out.
the people on methadone we can do with out
Joe, what are you going to do with your place during this forced shut down ?
War of the Worlds !!!! Orson Wells All over again !!!
Speak-Easys coming Back !!!!
All the people who live week to week with their fancy cars and trucks are going to lose their behinds. If you don’t have money saved you are screwed.
4:02. Check back in a week or so and tell us how many hundreds of Marylanders are infected. And in a month or so how many thousands are infected. Don’t you understand? The growth in infections is exponential. The only way to slow it down is to stop human interaction.
Salisbury can't do without DAYTON'S !!!!
Hey Joe, if I blink my headlights twice in front of your restaurant on Friday, will you bring me out two of those 1/2 pound burgers with all the trimmings?
Gas stations are next !!! Better fill-er up !!!!
They won't and it will be a breeding ground for this crap. My neighbor will bring it home and pass it to her kids and the next thing you know the whole neighborhood is on lock down. I've given her rides there and even gone inside. She tells me all about those people. Someone needs to report that place to the authorities FAST
Flu killed 61,000 last year... barely heard a peep...
Masks won't do much..it can still get in your eyes
Don't forget toasters
.. they kill 700 worldwide each year..in USA, it accounts for 300 deaths. We are nowhere near toaster numbers yet in USA..God willing, we won't be!
Dayton's > put the waitresses on Roller skates Sat & Sun to put
food trays on our cars (like in the 50's) !!!!

Damn shame you don't know how to make a hamburger at home. Damn shame.....
March 16, 2020 at 12:52 PM:
What part of social distancing can't you understand? The last bars I was in had all the bar stools right next to one another. Just stay home and buy some beer for your disease.
Bar owners wouldn't do the right thing for the country, so the Governor did it for them.
Or they could stop spraying us
That would stop the bioweapon
Right?
7:34 spot on that’s why people are suspicious of the government actions.
Gas stations are automatic with a swipe of a card they will not close
🤣
2 rolls of Toilet paper per week pp !!!
They are not going to stop spraying us.
LOL
That there was funny
