These are the emergency steps we are taking to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 & protect people across LA, effective at midnight tonight. This isn’t easy & I don't make this decision lightly. We will do everything we can to help businesses & workers impacted during this time. pic.twitter.com/FAAOcRBDn7

For the mayor of Los Angeles to close movie theaters is a big deal, because it sends a message to the rest of the world: Don’t go to the movies. (Granted, most of Hollywood’s revenue these days no doubt comes from entertainment delivered to homes, but still …)
Los Angeles is a high rent town. Economic question: How do lowered interest rates filter down to waitresses?
