I live in Michigan and were shut down as well. Are store shelves are empty. No I don’t think we’re over reacting it is necessary to slow the virus down. This virus is more contagious and more deadly then the flu virus. I’ve been in the medical filed for 26 years. I think people need to take this serious. Stay safe and healthy.
We agree completely Isolina - a lot of people aren't taking this seriously, really hoping we don't regret our actions (as a society) in a month. Stay healthy!!
Mark to watch this video late and know how hard NYC got hit after this video it’s crazy I bet your security guard mate is shocked at what this has turned into..about to binge on your filler videos since this one at first I thought you were out travelling again Hi Amanda love from Australia xx
Im norwegian : You should have tested people every day and followed up every one infected. You are 2-3 weeks after Europe. But in your country its a cost to be tested - crazy.
Yeah, even now it's still very difficult to get tested. I definitely think we're behind but fingers crossed it doesn't get out of hand. Norway did a great job of acting quickly and locking everything down

Man is crazy. Not even during storms we have seen NYC this empty Not even 6am, I worked in times square for 5 years (various hours) and I have never seen it that empty
@@thestrengthpt7073 I worked for the same company for 13 years managing all high profile locations. TS was crazy in all senses but very rewarding as well. One of a kind for sure
I'm glad to see you both are doing well. It's just as dead here as well and the store shelves are pretty empty. Keep being safe. My nurse and I went for a ride and it's almost like a ghost town here. And less planes in the air too. It's creepy quiet here! Keep being safe. All the best to you both.
@@MarkAmanda The small markets here are doing OK and are pretty much stocked up but big name stores have empty shelves. Be safe in the worst tragedy I have ever seen.
After this virus passes. The West is follow the East norms. Face mask will be the new norm and so will be bowing to greet older or superior people. Among friends a simple wave. Hand shakes won't be done anymore
The East does things differently for a reason and because of experience. That's why only China and Japan aren't getting many new cases meanwhile S. Korea has been REDUCING the number of cases. That and the fact, that thousands have already been tested (drive thru testing), health screenings at the airport, workers in hazmat suits spraying down the subways, buses and the streets. Apps that track the infected and stores that have body heat cameras(you can track who has fever). Only those are making gains against the virus meanwhile in the west it's spreading fast like a wildfire
Evangeline Rao church make us do that but I stopped shaking hands way long ago I think I’ve stopped like 2 or 3 year ago something like that will not shake someone again but I will bow down to others but not shaking hands
Very cool. Thanks for sharing how things are going in one of my favourite cities. Sending you guys good vibes and hoping for the best. Unfortunate to think COVID-19 likely active during that period. 4:30
In Central Florida all the theme parks are closed including Disney World and Lego Land. All the schools and universities are closed until mid April online classes only. Bars and lounges are closed. Restaurants are still open but no sit down service because all the dining areas are closed. Drive thru and carry out only. Just got the one call message from my church, all church functions and services are closed until further notice but the church office will still be open regular hours for emergencies. All cruises are shut down until further notice. No toilet paper and sanitizing agents and pain killers at the stores. WalMart just started to ration bottled water. Noticed the local public bus service in Volusia County (Daytona Beach area) is still running. Don't know whats going on with Amtrak or Sun Rail train service yet. Stay safe everyone!!
Wow - my Dad lives in Ocala, I'll have to call him up and see how things are going. It sounds like the shutdown is nationwide and hopefully will result in less cases in the long run
Yes I remember Detroit in the 1980's bring deserted. Butee have 3 casinos now and renovated theaters. It isn't so desolate now. The virus is moving fast now in Detroit.
I'm in Central California and we're doing everything the same as you guys. I'm a long-time volunteer at the local Blood Center and they just started suspending all volunteer opportunities until further notice... so no more volunteering at least for a while. It's crazy and the grocery store's shelves being empty is really frightening!!
Cali is in total lockdown now right??!! Yeah, seeing the store shelves empty makes us want to go out and stock up too... we haven't pulled the trigger on that yet tho because we don't really have space and don't want to get caught up in all the speculation/craziness yet... That being said, we do have a big a$$ bag of rice that will last a while if we need it :)
@@MarkAmanda Went back to the grocery store today (4 days since last time) and most shelves were stocked and there were employees "sanitizing" shopping carts for us as we entered the store. Much better than the last visit!! Take care guys!
Here in Gastonia, North Carolina we went on stay at home order yesterday. Yes we are out of tp. & Hand sanitizers & paper towels, gloves, masks, ect. It's rough here also.
.... try to leave ur outdoor shoes outdoors......... and wear indoor shoes INDOOR....... or sanitise ur footwear before u enter ur home............. its gonna get serious yo! love u guys! stay safe... watch the movie THE FLU (Korean Movie) ......

It's NYC, there's always going to be a lot of people. Trust us, for all the areas I went, they are NEVER that quiet especially at that time of day (and the sun shining?!?!)
Looks like we both had pretty similar experiences - some people still NYC is busy because there are people out but it's NOTHING compared to what it is normally like
Here in slovakia it's illegal to leave house without face mask. Most of the europe has this as well. What I don't understand how almost nobody in NYC wears mask and YOU, extremely well traveled person that A LOT of people follow is not wearing one either *facebpalm*
A lot of the masks here are sold out and the most recent news from CDC said that the masks wouldn’t help (allow they may be changing their stance on this soon) If the masks become readily available again we’ll grab some, until then I’d rather leave them for people that have to be in the public daily (grocery store works, police, etc)
@@MarkAmanda That's extremely poor judgement from you. So basically what you are saying is, that you have accepted the fate that you are infected and you don't care whether you infect others. Please consider, that you might have infected people that willl eventually die because of you. This is irresponsible behavior.
Hi again Mario, we’re fully aware that we can potentially infect others. Please do a quick google search and you’ll see that the only masks that are effective are N95 and since there is a shortage of PPE it would make no sense for us to try to get one when first line healthcare providers need them. We’ve been compliant with social distancing recommendations.
It’s not odd it’s cyclical. They will possibly get a milder wave again. Once testing, containment and mitigation are all up to speed it’s quite manageable after the initial onslaught of ICU requirements.
Trump started it and used on wuhan to hurt their economy. But anyway it could of happened anywhere. Viruses don't care. That's why it's a stupid way to use it as a weapon. But Trump is stupid and a sociopath narcissist. Go figure
I think NYC isn’t coming back from this. People are moving out. Prices have dropped like 50% in real estate. Thank the political views of the governor and mayor. You cannot shut down a city or state for to long and not suffer the consequences. Covid is still spreading despite following social distancing because it’s airborne. We can’t stop being human for Covid.
Saw some guy in Tennessee had a stockpile (18,000 containers) in his garage that he was trying to sell at a crazy marked up price online... talk about selfish and greedy
Yeah I think we are doing the right thing by the elderly by avoiding each other. By going out for no reason other than to vlog, you are endangering people. You might have it and not know it. You could transmit it to someone who has to work and has a family member that is immunocompromised. So yeah, inconsiderate move, Mark. 👎
You're completely right Geoff, I did my best to maintain the 6 ft distance from people but staying at home is the best option. Since, other then walking the dog and getting food we've stayed in our apartment and will until it's safe to be in the community again
FYI it’s not elderly only who are getting sick. Many of the hospitalizations that are happening for people in their 20s 30s and 40s they just get better after 2 to 3 weeks of ICU care in some cases being on ventilators for two or three weeks. It’s the elderly who are most at risk of dying when they get sick and as a species more susceptible to the contagion as we age it seems. Many will be fine, but some will be very very sick and survive. There is also early evidence anecdotally that there may be some long-term scarring to the lungs of the people who were the most severely sick. And they vary in all age ranges. Right now we are seeing similar scarring that we see with other respiratory disorders that people then have compromised lungs for life.
I live in Michigan and were shut down as well. Are store shelves are empty. No I don’t think we’re over reacting it is necessary to slow the virus down.

South Korea is reducing the number. It's not strange. It's called being smart and using technology to your advantage
