COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

Heard furloughs are coming to some gov workers in New Orleans.

I suspect lots of state and local governments will furlough workers this fiscal year. LA is lucky that they can cut workers June-July and still get the federal $600 unemployment wages. A pay cut stinks but doable in a state with such low cost of living.

I am worried about the DC metro area and furloughs. We are still trending up for new cases. I could see an August/September furlough just when federal funds run out. Even if the area did July as a furlough, the federal funds won't even cover many peoples rent/mortgage.
