For the Not Old among us who may not know, Stephen Stills and Neil Young were in Buffalo Springfield, so I just assume a reference to CSN&Y includes Buffalo Springfield. :)

One dead in my state but as I live in Western Australia I'm not sure I count.
That death was an elderly passenger on the Diamond Princess cruise ship which was stuck in quarantine in Japan. We have not had a death since then although our number of cases is up around 80.
We took the netting off our grape vine a couple of days ago but it's parrots and lorikeets who are munching the few grapes we had left. The neighbours fig tree is feeding quite a few birds too.
strangely a bat got caught in an outdoor light fitting near our fig tree yesterday, so I freed it. First time I've seen one at our place north of the Swan River, Perth.
Australian infections now beginning to grow exponentially, hence closure of borders, social distance rules, sport and entertainment stopped - schools still open in some states but within 48 hours will probably close. Even Bondi Beach got closed down yesterday.
Trying to shut everyone inside while keeping the economy idling along and the shelves stocked is a challenge. Flu season wil start here soon too.
Good luck to all you in the Northern Hemisphere - lets hope warmer spring weather improves things a little.

Are you managing to get groceries alright? Most of our local ( south of the river) supermarkets are out of pasta, rice, canned veg, except for some reason beetroot, flour, loo rolls, tissues and kitchen roll. OH and I have enough which will allow us to self isolate for a few weeks..we are both around 70 so we'll be taking extra care of ourselves.
