That sucks. Sorry for your loss. The next 3 weeks we all may know someone that at least has it or worse.
Are there reasons to panic or are there major overreactions?

Paddock power of suggestion. This post raised my curiosity level. So, I just went grocery shopping at HEB Rundberg. My journey to the nearby grocery store involves walking one mile there and one mile back. I carry a vintage 1960s-era Swiss Army backpack, gifted 16 years ago by a former co-worker, for my grocery shopping.
Shopper demographics at this grocery store are, roughly: 75% Latino, 20% African-American and 5% White/Caucasian.
Milk supply ran low, but some of all types (Whole, 2%, 1%, no-fat) is still available. No paper towels. No toilet paper. The entire aisle was completely bare. Few paper napkins. Pasta and sauce nearly sold out. Dried beans and rice nearly sold out.
But the produce section? As fully stocked as I've ever it. Possibly overstocked. Plastic bag racks in the section were empty.
Sigh, priorities.......
Both tennis leagues I play in have cancelled their seasons. I think that's a major overreaction. The virus is transmitted in two ways as we know, close distance contact (3-6 feet) or touching infected people or objects they touched. You don't get anywhere near other players on the tennis court except on break if the bench is small. You can easily make a spacing rule for that, and being outdoors drastically reduces the possibly of person to person contact.
I head this morning that some moron had decided to close a golf course. I can't think of a safer place to be than a gold course - pure idiocy.
Hopefully if they can get the testing ramped up in the next few weeks they can figure out which areas need to be isolated and can start opening things backup.
