nothing in your link proves otherwise. However horrifying this is, I wouldn’t be shocked if it is happening.

Of course we knew they were lying, but just not by that much. At this point I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they had hundreds of millions of cases....
We are not in 1960 anymore. They can hide deaths numbers by a certain number, not 99%. 100s million means at least 1m deaths...

Anyone try calling Chase to see what they're offering to do?

Called Chase via the Sapphire Reserve line. Was told that Chase could "suppress" payments for anyone impacted but that interest would continue to accumulate. Way to go, Chase.

Any other data points?

So in the long run you will be paying more.  >:(

Screenshot from Cuomo press conference announcing new rules in NY. Punishable and enforceable. Similar to EY.

Drive through like we had in Crown Heights last night? IDK. I’m assuming people will seek guidance.

Are appliance stores essential businesses?  One of the worst things that can happen now to people with full fridges/freezers is for them to go.

Who is they? Which part of “seek guidance” don’t you understand?

I’ve seen creative weddings with total social distancing (dancing with ropes or poles, etc). Would you have a problem if people scheduled to get married seek guidance from NYS on their options?

I understand what you are saying. What everyone needs to realize we have separation of church and state. That doesn't mean ANY religion can do what they want based on their religion.

What kind of thinking is that?

The thinking of someone who is understandably anxious. I don't think it was meant as complete yiush c"v but rather an expression of their being nervous. They would be crazy not to be.

Maybe this is a blessing in disguise and he will be saved from cancer without chemo (or with delayed treatment)?

From Rabbinic authorities as to how to perform a religious event while adhering to the law of the land & medical guidelines.
