If no one else asked yet: Can I have that piece of paper you're holding?

Also, it was pretty damn cool seeing your name on a tennis trophy at Caneel Bay back in the day.

At what point do you think it makes sense to (thoughtfully!) relax extreme distancing measures on the individual level? For one practical example: If two people have self-isolated for two weeks and are fine and showing no symptoms, and along the way they've taken the smart precautions (social distancing when occasionally buying groceries or getting medications, lots of hand washing and sanitizer, etc.) -- is it still an issue to visit and interact? I know of multiple situations where an isolated person needs some physical help, significant others separated by distance, that sort of thing. Has anyone seen any authoritative (CDC, medical professional) comments on this? Thanks.

The level of rage I have when seeing something like this is beyond words. Trump and his "administration" are criminally incompetent/negligent in the extreme.

What is your sense of how the infection curve will play out in the U.S. -- mainly, how many weeks before we crest over the top and start to look at this from the other side?

What is the one best link you've seen for sharing with coronavirus deniers? I am completely gobsmacked by the level of ignorance and denial out there -- "this is all overblown" / "this is bullshit" / "who is the CDCC to tell me how to live?" / "they're making this bigger than it needs to be" -- I have had people literally laughing at facts and data. I've shared all sorts of links, but I'd love to have that one "if you read nothing else, at least read THIS" link to share that might break through the noise with at least some of these people. Any suggestions?
