“Dear PoPville,
I had 2 different couples invite me into their homes over the weekend. The first wanted our dogs to get out some energy while we worked inside and the second wanted to feed me brunch on Sunday. While it was nice to have friends thinking of me and wanting to spend time with me (I’m single so distancing can get lonely), this is exactly what we SHOULDN’T do while social distancing! (more…)
Let’s talk take out for a minute or two – where has your favorite meal been from and what did you order? Anyone get some good drinks too?
I’d also be curious to know how you ordered? Calling the restaurant directly? Using an app? If app which one? Did you do take out or delivery?

“Dear PoPville,
My friends and I are wondering how we should get to a medical facility if we suspect we have COVID-19? As most young professionals in the city we rely on public transit and rideshares to get places regularly, which we would not use if we suspect we are sick.
Has the city issued any recommendations? What do other readers recommend? Do we call an ambulance or just stay home?”
Another reader asks: “If a person has bad symptoms, needs to tested (or SAVED), how do they get there? Uber? WMATA? Walk w/ 104° fever?”

Holy moly, thanks to Julie for sharing this drop dead gorgeous “view on this AM run.”
Thanks to Brian for sharing with us:
“PSA: STAY HOME. People were out and about Washington, DC for the cherry blossom festival despite warnings to stay home to stop the spread of COVID-19. So I decided I would drive around with giant speakers on the roof of my car to tell people to create a public service announcement to stay home, stay safe, and practice social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic.”
Helps explain the decision to involve The Guard a bit more.
