Good morning.

We have a COVID-19 update for all y’all via FOX 29’s Steve Keeley, who is reporting live this morning down in South Philly:

Breaking: “Only essential personnel” allowed into Wells Fargo Center hours after Sixers-Detroit Pistons game ended. Pistons now in self-quarantine “somewhere”because they played against player with Coronavirus days before diagnosed. Dan&Shay concert postponed. @FOX29philly pic.twitter.com/ggYJBtUUEX

Here’s another one from Keeley:

Dan&Shay roadie tells me not only is tonight’s scheduled concert in Philadelphia postponed due to coronavirus, but tomorrow’s concert is too because it was on University of Virginia campus in Charlottesville&classes now online only&campus “off limits to big crowds” @FOX29philly pic.twitter.com/ufmJcG1qsm

Of course the NBA season is currently suspended, and we’ll get an update today on what the NHL plans to do. The Flyers are scheduled to play again Saturday. The Union game is currently ON for Saturday, though that game is taking place in Delaware County down at Subaru Park, so we’ll see if MLS follows the NBA and does a temporary suspension. That’s probably where we’re all headed anyway.

Stay safe everybody and warsh your hands.
