You left really early. What indicators were you looking at to make the call? Is it just you?

In a major west coast city and trying to think through when to leave. Too early better than too late but I don’t have a cabin in the mountains so it will be a significant cost to hide out for a month.

It was part coincidence. I had a week without teaching duties. But I packed for a long stay. What convinced me was the carefree attitude of many.

Two examples:

"Nothing to worry about, it is just a little more than a regular flu" (Attilio Fontana, Governor of Lombardia)

"#milanononsiferma" (Giuseppe Sala, Major of Milano)
