First entry, but kind of late - Day 1, no school

Probably should have started this a while ago, but, oh well, here it goes. As of today there have been 218 cases in Franconia with 2 deaths, yesterday it was 161 cases with one death. That's a little under 1%, and those 2 deaths were elderly patients with prior health issues.

Today is also day 1 of a Bavaria wide shutdown of schools and preschools. The shutdown is scheduled to last until the 20th of April. How the hell are we going to keep the kids entertained that long? Netflix better not crash the next few weeks.

Starting tomorrow more measures will be in place to enforce/encourage social distancing such as the closure of museums, zoos, swimming pools, and other things. Stupid stores like boutiques will also close. The goal now is containment. 

I am also working from home for the foreseeable future. This poses some interesting challenges, but it will work out. 

Good news is, the weather is supposed to be nice this week. That means: fresh air and sun, two things that seem to kill germs.

We still have enough toilet paper.

More to come tomorrow.

***EDIT*** Day ended with 243 confirmed cases
