In Britney Snow’s defense…the CDC had absolutely zero guidelines on March 14. That was the day Tom Hanks announced aka the actual start of even the govt taking it seriously.

I’m immunocompromised & was low key freaking out about a family trip to DC we had that week so was very in tune to news. We flew home the day that everything shut down & even then some lady in the airport looked at me like I was batty & moved away bc I was Clorox wiping everything we would touch. It was the Wild West back then😵‍💫

I was at a wedding on 3.4.20 (pi day!) and even though there weren't any guidelines, about 25% of the guests cancelled and the ones who did go all knew that this was probably going to be the last time we'd all be doing anything for a while cos everything was starting to get canceled.

The scariest part of the wedding was the buffet (GASP). So much hand washing! Ah, we were so young and naive, once.
