1. Update -

From DUer Botany, based on worldometer, since there's canned programming on MSNBC this evening. No additional updates from the usual source (Johns Hopkins/NBC News). The whole day's been like that:

America will hit a milestone tomorrow probably... 3M Coronavirus cases

it seems only yesterday, we were heading towards 100,000 cases.
