This is devastating. One NYC doctor speaks out / takes video footage of what it’s like on the inside. They are using a freezer truck to store bodies. “I don’t really care if I get in trouble” she said. “I want people to know this is bad. People are dying.” nytimes.com/2020/03/25/nyreg…
Transcript & video from @NYGovCuomo: "I have no doubt that the virus was here much earlier than we even know ... & much earlier than in any other state because ... Travelers from China, Italy, Korea came" to NY 1st. #CoronavirusLockdown #COVID2019 governor.ny.gov/news/video-a…
Quoting Gov. Mario Cuomo, @NYGovCuomo on NY & what govnt should be: "family, mutuality, sharing benefits & burdens for good of all, feeling one another's pain, sharing one another's blessings, reasonably, honestly fairly, w/o respect to race, sex,geography, political affiliation"
The #CoronaVirusChallenge shows media & #journalists are an essential service in a democracy. In NY, only essential businesses can have >50% of workers at work outside home. Newsrooms are virtual & reporters roam solo. Who is "press," what to do? @NYGovCuomo said "good question!"
Non-essential business will not be allowed to have more than 50 percent of their workforce working outside of their homes, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said. The governor also announced that a military hospital ship will dock in New York City wcbs880.radio.com/articles/5…
The news media is among "essential services" in our economy under the New York and New Jersey workforce reductions order. #COVIDー19 #QuaratineLife #coronavirus #journalismmatters #journalism nbcnewyork.com/news/business…
Never on Sunday? Citing economic harm from #coronavirus & the troubled #energy industry - & need for lending to households & businesses -the #Fed slashed its benchmark interest rate range by one point to between zero & 0.25%. #FOMC #investingnews federalreserve.gov/newsevent…

Stay calm & flow gently like “Sweet Afton,” the 1791 poem by Robert Burns: "Ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den, Thou green-crested lapwing thy screaming forbear,I charge you, disturb not my slumbering” youtube.com/watch?v=zJXDbR2z…
Why doesn't it occur to hoarders of #coronavirus prevention supplies that they could redeem themselves? Donate stashes in hard-hit states, or sell below cost! I asked 2 people to share at a shop last night, each said no. Soap has many applications here #panicshopping #capitalism

This past week, w/many distracted by #Coronavirus & the US election, #Turkey said 1000s of its ~4 million #migrants & refugees will go to EU via Greece & Bulgaria. Not all are from Syria & some had bus rides, reports say. A health economic political crisis bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-…

Catch this documentary via @PBSAmerMasters about the brilliant, complicated Miles Davis, his #jazz, & observations, in his voice, on love, racism, & life. Fascinating to see him improvising my favorite composition: L'Ascenseur pour l'Échafaud, a b&w French film soundtrack #music
In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, @PBSAmerMasters presents "Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool." Get an inside look here! #MilesDavisPBS
Searching #Kobe Bryant's creative efforts & his parents, a 1996 quote: "Basketball is kind of like life. It can get rough at times. You can get knocked on your butt a couple of times. But what you have to do is get up and hold your head high and try again"
