Ohio has enacted a mandatory 3 week spring break at arting tomorrow for k-12. State wide. Anything like this in IA?

No, but I've been dreading it here. Today we got a pretty severe email from our daycare provider that if a kid so much as coughs they'll be removed to a manager's office and will need to be picked up within thirty minutes and can't come back without a doctor's note.
Have you heard any details there about what, if anything, the state is going to do to help families sort this out? I would think most people don't have a contingency plan for their kid(s) unexpectedly being home for three weeks.

I didn’t dig in to it much. Doesn’t apply to our situation.

I was sent home yesterday. Of course I WAS drunk and not wearing pants, but it could be the fever.

Seriously - my 1,800 person company (a utility in Spokane) has sent all non-essential home starting yesterday to work from home.
THIS IS THE IOWA THREAD!!! ARE YOU STILL DRUNK? AND PANTLESS?

You can stick your head up a bulls ass but I’d rather take a butchers word...

Anybody been to Hy-Vee or Fareway today? Assume panic buying is picking up.

Hy-Vee has a three day sale on Pork Butts $.99/lb. I got six that averaged 8.5 lbs each. They had a good supply of TP.

People checking out of hotels are being asked if they are taking rolls of TP with them.
