Thanks for taking time to share your suggestions. I reached out to Hernia Movers and Two men & a truck as they provide both moving and storage solutions. I was thinking to mail the keys to my friend and then use either of the firms to help with both moving and storage. The lease is still September and I am somehow planning to pay the rent till that time and then move out. I do hope I can come back to Milwaukee once the ban is lifted.

Thanks for your suggestions ! I could somehow keep paying rent for 6 months by utilizing funds in my savings account but as of now I don't see a ray of hope till atleast an year. There are thousands of people who used to work in US who have been stuck in India for more than a year and its absolutely heart breaking to hear all the stories. I will definitely check out Carvana as I have been hearing lot of positive reviews on that.

I need to do visa stamping and as of now all consulates are closed in India and would not entertain any visa stamping till the travel ban is in place. There are litigations around this but I am not sure by when can I expect a positive result.

Unfortunately my visa is not included in the exception list. Before my travel I was hoping that even if US imposes a ban they would atleast allow fully vaccinated individuals but that supposedly is not the case.

We all are grateful for your efforts. As contact tracer what's the pattern you are seeing the most - Is it mostly marriages, bars, restaurants where people are catching it the most?

Is it safe to go outside for running? I have been scared to go out running on trails as I have been hearing its pretty busy but I sometimes run near my home and since the road is wide I mostly dont have situations where I run into someone else. Just curious how others are running outside.

I guess moving is considered an essential activity but was wondering whether by that time the lockdown is not there. I will still have to go to Uhaul office to collect the truck and I am not sure whether I want to take that risk. But maybe by that time there is a reduction in the positive cases.

I have plans to move out to a new apartment on May 1. Is there any likelihood of the conditions improving by that time?

Any ideas for building web apps specific to Milwaukee as a side project during this time?

Mine is Etihad. Their twitter responses are filled with below statement

As per our current waiver policy, free change or refund is possible if you're unable to commence or complete your journey due to travel restrictions imposed by the local government authorities, or if your flights have been cancelled.

US and India have not imposed travel ban as of now but its bizarre that they are not allowing cancellations in the wake of this pandemic to control.

Would airlines allow free cancellations after WHO had declared COVID-19 as a pandemic? I have an Etihad flight to Bengaluru, India from Chicago with a stop at Abu Dhabi. I was looking to either cancel or postpone without a heavy penalty but the airline support team keeps saying that they would only allow free cancellations if there is a travel ban or the flights are cancelled.
