@Luka MilicevicThanks for sharing the story, it's a tough lesson that I wish I could say that I have not learned the hard way.

He says he rents in some very tough areas.Hope he's ok and didn't run into any trouble.Hey Dennis, are you out there?

As mentioned, while the Corona Virus is the primary news with a lot of unknowns around it, service sector workers will be effected, but I think it will bounce back once people are free to leave their houses, and actually booming for a few weeks after lockdowns are relaxed.  

@Robyn J.Hi Robyn,Although I am a bit of a newbie as well, it will probably be tough to find investment deals in a city like New York if you are only dealing with brokers and MLS listings.

I am a nature lover so I wouldn't cut them.... but it would be a tough one.

This is is going to be a tough few months considering I still have workers who depend on their pays and bills to pay for My questions are:1. 

@Ammanuel Shiferaw This is a tough situation to be in.

Its a tough time, yes.

Scott Gottlieb, former head of the FDA, to companies in the NYSE.US will soon have massive testing capacityConfirmed cases will grow exponentially now that testing is finally getting rolled outDon't be surprised to see 1000 confirmed cases in a dayBy the end of April to early May, it will start to plateau (depending on containment behaviors that we are currently living)Schools will be closed for this school yearThe summer heat in the northern hemisphere will help to contain the spread, although it will continue to existEvery reason to believe that the southern hemisphere will experience rapid spread as the weather cools (expect continued travel restrictions)The risk posture will improve in the Fall with the following:Point of care diagnostic (local swab testing everywhere - will allow early detection)Therapeutic antiviral drugs will be available (not a vaccine)Monthly injections of an antibody will be available (not sure what this is), particularly for medical workers and members of nursing homesThe testing capabilities that are getting put in place will provide a massive surveillance system to provide early detection until a vaccine is in placeAll of this will make the virus more manageable until we have a vaccineThe virus is very contagious (more than the flu)10x more deadly than the fluEven without death, the hospitalization rate (15%) and critical care rate (5%) are extremely high (we don't have medical capacity without containment)Mortality rate:1% overall4% ages 60-7010% ages 70-8014% ages >801 in 250 to 1 in 550 for some his age (47) - said "that's enormous"He recommended that his parents stay home for a couple of monthsHe also felt that masks should be produced and mandatedThese bullets are subject to my note taking and I am certainly not qualified in this area.

@Kevin Lisewski let us know if getting things leased ends up being tough or not.
