GNN Note – My beloved city is a ghost town. We just came in from a trip through downtown and saw, maybe, 30-40 people over a 25 block area. Normally you would see on a Sunday afternoon 3-4 thousand, if not a lot more, people in this same span.

Mayor John Cooper has issued a “Safer at Home” order to citizens in response to the spread of the deadly virus, which will go into effect at midnight on Monday.

Under the order, pharmacies, grocery and convenience stores will remain cleared to open but all non-essential businesses will close. Citizens are urged to stay inside and to practice social distancing if they go outside. All gatherings of more than 10 people in public are prohibited, and restaurants can only service take-out or drive-through customers.

Cooper called for a citywide day of prayer on Sunday to “lift up all Nashville residents during this difficult time,” though he has ordered all churches to suspend in-person services.
