Screencap of Bern's black eye. Gotta love this guy, not well liked, not bright, done nothing in life, irritating voice, singular unevolving message and never going to be elected. All that, and he takes not one but TWO black eyes for stepping out of line.
Is this the only picture showing him with a black eye? It is very low resolution.
The color of the "black eyes" is the same as the shadow on his neck. Look at the similar eyes of the other people in the photo. I think it is just the lighting.

A lady just told me that you canceled her trip to the Bahamas. I told her there was no need to because coronavirus is so mild and effect so few people.

If enough people at the professional level, unite in their request (or demand) that POTUS 'shut everything down' will he have any choice but to comply through some type of mass quarantine or implementing Martial Law?
This #coronavirus *cannot* be stopped. It can only be slowed. Federal, state, and local officials need to SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING NOW. Close schools, offices, public transit. Ground the planes. Quarantine communities with confirmed community spread. Slow action = MORE deaths.

I honestly don't think they have a plan to cover this type of thing. I hope I'm wrong.
I feel fairly confident that they do and I'm willing to bet that the quarantine/ML option is already on the table. They have to wait for matters to reach a certain level before anything can be implemented just so they don't appear to be over reacting

With everything being closed down, internet caps/limits should be removed.
The infrastructure CAN handle it. Extra fees are just an extra revenue stream, which we all knew years ago.
For years, US broadband providers have taken advantage of a lack of US competition by imposing arbitrary and expensive broadband usage caps and "overage fees." With the country facing a massive surge in videoconferencing and home learning thanks to the coronavirus epidemic, experts say it’s time for broadband providers to suspend these costly, unnecessary restrictions.
Motherboard reached out to the ten largest US broadband providers that employ caps in the United States, and only one of them was willing to go on record to discuss usage caps or their preparedness for COVID-19.
A representative at Comcast informed Motherboard that there were “lots of conversations” currently going on in regards to getting ahead of the outbreak, but wasn’t able to confirm whether a usage cap suspension would be part of the company’s playbook.

Honestly in this day and age there shouldn't be caps on bandwidth or anything. I have a fiber line with no cap whatsoever. If it did have a cap my bill would probably be in the thousands of dollars because I use terabytes of data every month. Its almost impossible not to these days unless you're off the grid, or just don't use the internet.
