    I was mostly just making a joke, that he wasn't following the advice were all being given. Cause like every video I see now I see someone say they aren't doing it right! :)
    Touching my face is such a hard habit to break.

    He was asked those very questions and no, I didn't take your post fully serious. I just saw it as a great opportunity to get what I imagined in my mind was a response to my hilarious post. I guess it was like so may other cases where my imagined hilarious statement was not received quite as hilarious as I would have liked. Damn, Red Baron, you got me again.

    Many countries including Iran are giving their citizens free high speed internet to help them with self isolation.

    It's kind of like what they announced in LA.

    Trying to make it sound nice and soften the blow from a "shelter in place" directive, but no one will really follow until people start getting ticketed.

    Need to be more authoritative

    I saw it, it wasnt super clear what they wanted changed, just saying stay at home. It wasn’t shelter in place, they said they were specifically not using that language.

    They flat out said you can still go do stuff. I think people are taking it seriously though.
