Virginia governor issues stay-at-home order

[Steve O]

That 2011 document says "since 2007." Was it significantly earlier than that?

That seems about right to me. Down the rabbit hole. Washcycle has some posts:

What I don't see in these, though, is reference to the incident that is in the back of my memory, some sort of a crash, that started this whole house of cards to start tumbling down.

I must say, having the Washcycle for all these years is a glorious gift. Major kudos.

VA governor extended business shutdown until May 14 but said he expects to begin rolling back restrictions after that. Expect phase 1 of reopening to start Friday May 15th. News conferences are made on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays only.

Just in time for Bike to Work Day!

From today's update, VA governor said "We hope to enter phase 1 next Friday, the 15th of May", but he also said that it will be based on seeing declining numbers over a two week period. We are still at 500 to 700 new cases per day:

So I was one of the weirdos on 5/15 and biked to work that day not because I couldn’t work from home, but because I truly missed bike to work day. Separate masks for sweaty biking vs interacting with real people.
