Numbers still coming down:

Kate McKinnon played me again last night on “Saturday Night Live” in the context of the
new CDC guidelines (see above). The CDC (Rochelle) got slammed on all the Sunday
Shows for the abruptness of the announcement without planning for it or alerting people. People
are confused as to what to do in certain settings such as businesses, shops, etc. I tried to clarify
this on Sunday TV shows (see below).

   •   Chris and I (with the detail) went for our Sunday walk on the Mall as opposed to the
       Canal. Just as with Raku last night restaurant, we ran into groups of students who had

       just had their graduation ceremony from George Washington University on the Mall. A
       few recognized me and started squealing and laughing as asking for selfies, which I gave
       them. Then more and more people gathered around and soon we had the same sort of
       crowd around me as has happened at AU, Chef Geoff’s, and Raku. It looks like for at
       least a while this is what is going to happen.
