BREAKING: NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio announces New York City public schools will be closed as of Monday. 'We will make a first attempt to restart our schools on Monday, April 20th.'

5:52 p.m. New York City closes public schools

De Blasio said the Department of Education is working to roll out an ambitious remote learning program that is slated to begin next week. Seehoder said that one of the most important measures is to"cut off the source of infection," by limiting social events and travel.Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced that all bars and restaurants in the state will be closed from Monday to March 30."This is not a joke. No on one is immune to this," Pritzker said during a news conference Sunday.All restaurants and bars in Ohio are ordered to close beginning at 9 p.m. Sunday, said Gov. Mike DeWine.

The employee -- who is quarantined at home and"doing well" -- did not have symptoms while at work"which is believed to lower the risk of transmission," the NIH said. A Police patrol of the Ostia Commissariat checks two citizens, who will later be reported for violating the quarantine, at the Ostia harbor, March 15, 2020, in Rome, Italy.Two days before St. Patrick's Day, one of Chicago's most celebrated days of the year, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said businesses selling liquor must reduce their capacity, with no more than 100 people inside.Meanwhile, in South Boston, bars and restaurants are closing Sunday, according to a tweet from State Sen.

Empty street is seen in Manhattan borough following the outbreak of coronavirus disease in New York, Mar 15, 2020."States cannot build more hospitals, acquire ventilators or modify facilities quickly enough. At this point, our best hope is to utilize the Army Corps of Engineers to leverage its expertise, equipment and people power to retrofit and equip existing facilities — like military bases or college dormitories — to serve as temporary medical centers," Cuomo said.

Worst. Parade. Ever.

What exactly do these people not get about social distancing?

“Disperse!! No crowds allowed. If you do not, you will be arrested and put you in jail with a lot of others in close proximity.” 😐🤷🏻‍♂️

Some people have to learn the hard way. Let them catch it and let it work itself out.

Just driving down the street with your sirens on isn’t doing very much. Why aren’t you on your loudspeakers telling people to disburse

At least NOLA is good at evacuation of the French Quarter... Every Tuesday end of Mardi Gras. 🎉

And this is how you follow Italys path

Guns

brandondarby New Orleans..... Never stop being you. Never.

Enjoy your freedom. Enjoy coronavirus.

Looks like they're leading the parade. 😄🙄

And everyone showed them their boobs....we know, we've heard the stories.

dahboo7 That was no attempt. They actually do clear Bourbon Street every year at midnight, end of Mardi Gras. This was a mere suggestion in comparison.

theonlysuebee The citizens are having nothing of it, apparently.

sethrobson1 These folks are not the sharpest tools in the shed.

Hello do you think it will happen ha ha ha

EndGameWW3 My favorite quote: 'no people are more hopelessly enslaved then those who believe they are free.' America is the most freest country on Earth they say.

EndGameWW3 Now people see that their taxes I really spent on prison guards call police. and that they don't have the right to assemble they were permitted only.

Lmao, Americans can't even quarantine due to being so delusional and so afraid of bad things happening. God i can't wait till this country dies like rome.

Well, at least I can live in peace knowing the people around me are smart enough to know how to celebrate a holiday in small, contained groups ✌ My community is taking this quarantine thing to the max~

They don't wear condoms there either. Look at the std rate. Their not thinking

AMERICA. I AM DISAPPOINTED. Not a single drunk dude started dancing in front of the cars as if the flashing lights were disco lights. Shameful.

brandondarby Can you say police state or socialism? Here is your glimpse people!! libertyordeath

In other news...don't let them build over grave sites filled with slaves

Uhm... They're not listening.

That was as effective as Louisiana government.

MisMeganB Yeah cus this is making people go home. Seriously, how stupid are you guys?

dahboo7 Could it be the CCP released this in China because it would; allow them to recover first as they have the only authoritarian regime that could pull off a mass quarantine, while America would never be able too. if we see China move in the south sea before April.....

Good luck with that

EdNDeb4858 Stick those flashers up yur pie hole jimboy. CNN

These people be crazy...

Good luck getting those people to listen

Shut down the bars!! Omg. What are these people doing

PTeezy_

Would be easier to build a fence around it and tell them they can't leave.

AbriaStanise Yep nola is a no go for real lmao

It’s sad, here in Broward County there’s thousands at the beach 🏖. Government are going to be happy to declare Marshall law.

Idk what this is but I was just on Bourbon Street half an hour ago. It's packed and they aren't trying to clear it

“The Urge to Save Humanity is Almost Always Only a False-Face for the Urge to Rule It.” - H. L. Mencken

Can we quarantine those guys?

American privilege

That looks like it’s really working😂😂 people just walk back out after they pass. Drunk people probably think it’s a parade coming. They will follow with a second line umbrella ☂

These double digit IQs that will help it spread

Hmmm there more worried about STD

Why can’t people just go home for the time being. This too shall pass! We just have to do the right thing !

People don’t give a shit!

Americans are not taking this very seriously, neither did the Italians until a few weeks ago

Lol they have there work cut out for them..

Annoy people of the street.

cmarinucci They would’ve had much better luck if they would’ve had both horns and would’ve been saying GoHome CoronaVirusUpdates gohome CoronavirusPandemic JustGoHome juststayhome

Nothing new to see here. It’s exactly what they do at midnight on Shrove Tuesday (Mardi Gras). Lent begins and they clear the streets.

Guess all these govenors making up their own group sizes was enough and the CDC has put the cap on them..

turn on police car sirens for long enough and people will stop having fun and leave 😂

The governor is going to have to shut them down

f2fguy I don't see anyone leaving

Ppl it’s so irresponsible 🙄 go home !!!

Must. Do. Better.🤔

Parents be stern with your children explain the serious situation, Keep them home! to keep your family safe from spreading a virus to your whole family! StayHome KeepYourKidsHome

Stock futures crash Trump loses control Probably upset that he can't go golfing.

Where did all the 'just the flu' people go from a month ago? lol

Really quiet about open boarders now.

♪♫It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.♫♪ *cough, cough*

so sad.

And I bought a cake!

Crazy!

Here's what's next

MikeBucc

Cousin Sheila Krol if you are out there get your fanny home! Bourbon Street will live to party another day. bourbonstreet Krol

ATTEMPTING. GoodLuck

This is making us a police state.

This just keeps the party going

My parents literally just left there yesterday!

They need a few officers in full hazmat suits walking down the street. I imagine the crowds would disperse pretty quickly.

that's not how to do it

There’s worse diseases already on Bourbon St. Wuhan Virus doesn’t even register there.

Daytona’s bike week was called quits yesterday. Yesterday. As in one day, ago...

250 is such an arbitrary number. 250 in a small space is outbreak material. HowArePeopleSoStupid

Dumbasses

Good luck

Did everyone just go back inside the bars?

No one there cares.

ABC did it again...it's pitch dark in this video but it's 7:49 EST and there is still a little bit of light outside. No way it's pitch dark like this before 7PM New Orleans time

AJC513

Boy that will really work there 😂

People need to practice the safety guidelines that have been set in place to protect them and those around them... The ignorance of some is astounding to me

Close up those shops and people will go home.

In Orleans parish is where the most people are tested positive for the Corona virus. I don't understand why people are not listening to the officials, until their asses get sick 😤😡😷

Hey Spain give back Mayan codices and apologize for the damage you caused on indigenous the last 500+ years. Maybe I’ll put a good word in to nature about your revelation.

Hope spring eternal God hasn't finish with us yet maybe & wing & a prayer will help all the people around the world after all this little blue dot called Earth is the only place we all have & share may God hear our prayers.

Thank you Papa Francis. Please keep praying, we all need it!

Coming soon if we keep freaking out, Be swine flu strong!

Louisiana schools are closed also.

Thank you NYCMayor BilldeBlasio !!! ♥️

That’s crazy

Soooo schools are opening again on 4/20.

lookner

Damn. A month+

Will the mayor also please close BKLYNlibrary and QPLNYC ? We cannot handle the strain and cannot offer their full range of services. We are just going to be packing people in to smaller spaces which is the exact opposite of what we need to do.

They better announce online school. Im not fricken dealing with extra school days cuz of this crap. I need to finish school by June 25.

lookner

Kids should be in school in July now

What a bunch of loosers! 😜

This is HUGE. It's the right thing to do. But I feel for the kids. And what about their parents who have to go to work, if their jobs have not already closed down? I hope we got some plans in effect beyond what the federal gov't is not doing. Kids are going to go hungry.

What happens for kids who do not have internet access?

'I am distraught at having to take this action': New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced that the city's public school system is canceling classes as of Monday morning to combat the spread of the coronavirus.

April 20th? That’s insane. The kids don’t need to be out that late. What about those who are homeless or don’t have food at home?

pete_forester iBegUCallATune !!!

LMAO! He just said in an interview this morning he wasn't going to do it.. I'm sorry families who have to make arrangements in 12hrs & NY'ers who have such incompetent 'leadership.'

And the bars/restaurants?

Kids celebrating don't realizes the days will be made up later
