I'd imagine within a month America is going to come to a grinding halt in all things not considered to be essential. It'll last for 2-4 weeks.

Yeah, it isn’t going to take long for people to realize this is a fairly minor event.

American culture takes on the persona of the current President. 8 years of a pussy femme caused big problems.

Bruh, we've already proven this was caused by 3 years of Trump. Not sure why you keep lying to yourself.

Good luck getting American business to shut down for 2-4 weeks because of this. Small business everywhere would be up shite’s creek within days.

The CDC was too busy trying to cure chronic fake bone spurs and was blindsided by COVID-19

You will know it's getting real when / if the IRS postpones the April 15 tax deadline.

Maybe this will now prove we don’t need to come into work/school every damn day to successfully complete tasks and assignments.

Very fricked. Pretty much every mass gathering is about to be canceled "out of an abundance of caution."

Trump, Biden, and Bernie are all in the wrong age bracket for this virus. There’s a chance none of them will be president in 2021.

It's not mandatory yet. See below...

quote:

In response to the evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak in the U.S., Provost Joe Glover sent a memo to academic deans today recommending that instructors move their courses from face-to-face delivery to an electronic delivery mode effective immediately, wherever possible.

While this is not a requirement at this time, there is a strong probability that it will become a requirement before the end of the spring semester, and so instructors are encouraged to transition now.

Instructors should continue to follow their syllabus, assignment and exam schedules, and office hours schedule. Instructors are responsible for notifying their students in advance about the shift to the online format and to communicate regularly to them expectations surrounding assignments, exams, etc.

Help is available to assist faculty with transitioning at LINK
Keep Teaching - eLearning - University of Florida
INTRODUCTION. The University of Florida encourages faculty to plan instructional activities to ensure continuity of education in situations that may require moving classroom instruction online.
elearning.ufl.edu

The university will make every effort to be considerate of instructor and student concerns during this unprecedented situation. Instructors are strongly encouraged to be similarly considerate of student concerns.

As of now, the university is planning to deliver the usual summer sessions. However, it is possible that circumstances may require all courses to be delivered online.
