California issued shelter in-place orders on Tue Mar 17, 2020. I have been logging the highlights and lowlights. Five years ago the world shut down. The media reported the five year anniversary with minimal headline coverage. The COVID-19 Mar 2025 blog is the shortest blog. Another slow month from the first day to the last day.
Wed Mar 12. Shopped at Costco and O'Reilly. Got gas at Chevron.
Sun Mar 16. Five years ago to the day it was the last day before CA shut down due to the global pandemic.
Mon Mar 17. Five years ago to the day CA shut down due to the global pandemic. It was 1,826 days ago. Lives changed forever.
Wed Mar 19. Ran errands at the post office and Costco.
Tue Mar 25. The Center For Disease Control (CDC) took back $11.4 billion in funds for COVID-19. The funds were supposed to fund state health departments, community health departments, nongovernment organizations, and international organizations. The Department Of Health And Human Services said the COVID-19 pandemic is over. The $11.4 billion is transferred to President Donald Trump's Make America Healthy Again.
The federal public health emergency ended May 11, 2023. 1.2 million people died in the United States from COVID-19. Hundreds of people die every week from COVID-19. Long COVID-19 symptoms continue.
Fri Mar 28. Shopped at Safeway first thing in the morning.
