( ETH ) – New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio recently raised some eyebrows when he came out and strongly warned religious leaders that their places of worship could be shut down permanently if they did not comply with the city ’ s order to stop services during the coronavirus pandemic .
“ A small number of religious communities , specific churches , and specific synagogues , are unfortunately not paying attention to this guidance even though it ’ s so widespread , ” the New York Democrat said Friday at his daily press briefing .
“ I want @ @ @ @ @ @ @ preparing for the potential of religious services this weekend : If you go to your synagogue , if you go to your church and attempt to hold services after having been told so often not to , our enforcement agents will have no choice but to shut down those services , ” he added .
The mayor went on to say that continued resistance of authorities to close religious services could mean a permanent shutdown .
“ If that does not happen , they will take additional action up to the point of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” he said .
This follows a recent order from the mayor who issued a stay-at-home guidance this month , which includes fines and penalties for anyone in noncompliance .

OPINION ( Michael Snyder ) – Fear of COVID-19 has fundamentally transformed our entire country in a matter of weeks , and as long as people are afraid of this virus life is definitely not going to return to normal .
In fact , every “ shelter-in-place ” order in America could be lifted tomorrow and economic activity would not rebound even close to previous levels because a large percentage of the population would still be extremely hesitant to leave their own homes .
As coronavirus survivors tell us stories of the hellish ordeals that they have endured , an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how dangerous this crisis has become .
If you have asthma , a history of respiratory problems or other serious underlying health conditions , I strongly recommend that you do everything in your power to avoid catching this virus .

Here in the United States , we now have more confirmed cases than anywhere else in the world .
If you would have told me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the U.S. would be the first nation to 100,000 confirmed cases , I would have laughed at you .
And even though about half the country is currently under some sort of a “ shelter-in-place ” order , the virus just keeps on spreading .
In fact , the number of confirmed cases in the United States has doubled in just three days… Confirmed COVID-19 cases in the U.S. surpassed 100,000 Friday , doubling in just three days as the pandemic accelerates and the U.S. rolls out broader testing measures .

endtimeheadlines--2020-03-31--Supplies Are Starting To Get Really Tight Nationwide As Food Distribution Systems Break Down

OPINION ( Michael Snyder ) – All across America , store shelves are emptying and people are becoming increasingly frustrated because they can ’ t get their hands on needed supplies .
Most Americans are blaming “ hoarders ” for the current mess , but it is actually much more complicated than that .
Normally , Americans get a lot of their food from restaurants .
In fact , during normal times 36 percent of all Americans eat at a fast-food restaurant on any given day .
But now that approximately 75 percent of the U.S. is under some sort @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most of our restaurants have shut down , things have completely changed .
Suddenly our grocery stores are being flooded with unexpected traffic , and many people are buying far more than usual in anticipation of a long pandemic .
Unfortunately , our food distribution systems were not designed to handle this sort of surge , and things are really starting to get crazy out there .
I would like to share with you an excerpt from an email that I was sent recently .
It describes the chaos that grocery stores in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this virus became a problem that we as a nation could see as an imminent threat , Utah , because of its culture of food storage and preparing for disaster events seemed to “ get the memo ” first .
The week of March 8th grocery sales more than doubled in Utah , up 218 % .
Many states stayed the same with increases in some .
Idaho seemed to “ get the memo ” about four days later .
We were out of water and TP four days after Utah .
Then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ four days later .
Next was produce following a pattern set by Utah four days earlier .
The problem for us in Idaho was this .
The stores in Utah were emptied out then refilled twice by the warehouses before it hit Idaho .
Many of these Utah stores have trucks delivering daily .
So when it did hit Idaho the warehouses had been severely taxed .
We had a hard time filling our store back up even one time .
We missed three scheduled trucks that week alone .
Then orders finally @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the order and have dropped to 20 % .
In normal circumstances , we receive 98 % of our orders and no canceled trucks .
Now three weeks later , the warehouses in the Western United States have all been taxed .
In turn , those warehouses have been taxing the food manufacturers .
These food companies have emptied their facilities to fill the warehouses of the Western United States .
The East Coast hasn ’ t seemed to “ get the memo ” yet .
When they do what food will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stores ?
Food distribution and resources for the Eastern United States will be at great peril even if no hoarding there takes place .
But of course , it will .
Additionally , the food culture of the East Coast and other urban areas is such that people keep very little food on hand .
They often shop several times weekly for items if they cook at home .
They don ’ t have big freezers full of meat , home-canned vegetables in their storage rooms , gardens , or beans , wheat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basements .
