Vermont’s governor Phil Scott issued a stay-at-home order for Vermont, which goes into effect at 5pm on Wednesday. Vermont’s first case of Covid-19 was confirmed on March 7; we now have 95 confirmed cases, and seven people have died.
Here is an article from VT Digger with the specifics. Gov. Scott will have a press conference tomorrow to give more details and answer questions. While Scott is a Republican, he is not a Trump fan, and has made some sense through the years of his term. If we have to have a Republican President, I wish it could be someone sane, like Scott. (No, I didn’t vote for him, and will probably vote for Zuckerman next fall, but Scott is not a lunatic.)
