No confirmed cases in Alaska yet. Testing is starting to ramp up, so I suspect we'll detect some cases before the end of March. Hopefully we'll learn from the mistakes elsewhere and keep it under control here.

The massive run on supplies continues. Hand sanitizer and wipes disappeared several weeks ago. Toilet paper, paper towels, disinfectants, nitrile gloves, baby diapers, etc are running low. Food seems adequate, but some items are low or sold out. Costco is limiting sales on items like rice, sugar, and flour.

Our economy is being hurt by travel and event cancellations, and the crashing price of oil.
