The coronavirus scare is now affecting two of the most popular shows on television.
“Jeopardy” and “Wheel of Fortune” will no longer be shot with live studio audiences.
No word on how long this will last…sources say it all depends on the spread of the virus.
Sources say there are three primary concerns: Alex Trebek’s compromised immune system while he’s undergoing chemotherapy for stage 4 pancreatic cancer, the shows audience members are typically older and vulnerable to the virus and many of the people that attend the tapings are from out of town and travel is risky right now.
The coronavirus outbreak is making lobster really affordable.
If there’s an upside of this pandemic, it’s that you can eat like royalty for cheap.
Prices for lobster have hit rock bottom as charter flights that used to carry lobster from North American have all but halted due to restaurant cancellations and closed borders across Asia.
With nowhere to go, the unsold seafood is now flooding North American markets, causing prices to sink to their lowest in four years.
Some seafood markets typically sell lobsters for about $40 per pound…now prices have been slashed by half, down to $19.99 a pound.
The food delivery service has announced a new ”no-contact” food delivery option in response to coronavirus.
Now customers can specify how they would like to receive deliveries…meeting the driver at the door, curbside or non-contact where the food is simply left at the door.
The grocery delivery service Instacart has also rolled out a non-contact delivery option.
