And, in this context, disaster area is defined how, exactly?
Right now, I'm defining it as my house. My internet and cable are out!

Indeed, that likely would have been my next question (though I already knew/assumed "epidemic" or some variation was already included).
"Checks and balances" are pretty much only that a declared state of emergency must be renewed every 30 days, and can be overridden by the General Assembly.
There is no way that the GA gave, or intended to give, the Governor the authority to control ingress, egress, and movement within the entire state, by every person in, coming into, or going out of, the state, as a whole. And even if that was the GA's intent, the GA itself doesn't have the authority to do that.
What you are asserting is that a Governor's declaration of emergency is equal to martial (or, as this is INGO, Marshall) law.
This, again, gets at the heart of my concern for everything that is taking place - and widespread willingness to accept it - in terms of the state subverting individual liberty, in response to a virus.

I don't have that much gin.

I ordered 1 bottle each from Webstaurant.com and divegearexpress.com. I ordered the bottle from Webstaurant a couple of days before the Dive Gear order, but the Dive Gear order got to me first. They really do ship fast, if that makes a difference for you. Says on their website that they ship within 24 hours.
I don't think that the reasonable restrictions currently in place amount to martial law, or even anything close to it. Heck, Indiana State Parks are still open! So many businesses have been deemed essential that it would probably be easier to list the businesses that are NOT essential.
Now...start throwing up roadblocks and checking papers, and I'd be inclined to change my tune. Unless Godzilla comes ashore.
And I don't have any problem with Marshall law.

Fortunately, liquor stores are still essential businesses as far as I know.
Is that Akira Takahsi?
Well snap. Indiana apparently revised some numbers. We were actually at 199 on 4/6 (not 173) and at 203 (allegedly) on 4/7.
Which means...
Ain't hardly right at all.
Like, enough wrong to actually IRL **** me off. But whatevs.
Now, it still reflects a 9-day doubling for Indiana. If that holds (and it probably won't), then that puts us at 1k deaths in about 2 weeks. Let's say it is 5 days. That means 400 by 4/13 and 800 by 4/18. Pretty close to 1k.
I still don't see info on critical cases, but I'm 99% sure they know that number. That's the number they're working from, I'm convinced.

I feel bad for all the blind people out there who rely on touching and feeling their way around the world.
Oh..... Sorry.
For our Blind INGO members.

According to New York data around 83% of those who died of Wuhan virus were over 60 years old.
For many people I know, absolutely...as far as the Governor, no.
Listening to the news makes me fell like I've got a target on my back.
