12thman Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 As previously mentioned the Port of Seattle is cancelling sailings April 1st and 5th (https://www.portseattle.org/news/port-cancels-first-two-sailings-seattle-cruise-season) Port of Seattle has now banned Seattle as a port of call, meaning if your ship was to stop in Seattle for 1 day it will not now. (Subject to change) Many restaurants in the Seattle area are closing or reducing operating hours, one of the best know restaurateurs Tom Douglas is closing ALL 21 Restaurants except dahlia bakery for 8 to 12 weeks. ( https://www.tomdouglas.com/restaurants) If you are going to a restaurant best to call and see if they are even still in business. Restaurants that have closed permanently: Local 360 (http://www.local360.org/) and Arriba Cantina (https://arribacantina.com/) I'll post updates as they become available, anyone else feel free to add.

Good news is traffic is down severely, no lines to get a table and most restaurants are having specials. Just bring your own hand sanitizer. The city has lost it's mind and people are hoarding hand sanitizer, wipes, toilet paper why I don't get it? WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hopefully you aren't coming for a conference or something similar. There's a ban on gatherings larger than 250 people. Hopefully this does down soon. Don't see this kind of reaction when 92,000 people died in the U.S. alone between October last year and February of influenza virus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think people are watching Italy and trying to avoid that situation where their health care facilities just can’t keep up. Too many sick people in a compressed amount of time.

Is the healthcare system overwhelmed ? From what I’ve been reading (some news stories, some live interviews with Italian officials, and the rest unverified sources) the situation is that the number of people who need respiratory support (ventilators, intubation) exceeds the equipment available. I hope it’s not true, and I hope it does happen here. But the goal is to not get too many people into the system at the same time so as to not overwhelm the system.
