Well after today I’m no longer essential. Just got laid off! Who needs nurses in a healthcare crisis? Not my employer.
Laying off nurses during this situation? Pretty sure they are in demand everywhere.

most hospitals nationwide are actually low on census. (Contrary to what the news will have you believe). My hospital has been at peak census for the past 8-12months. We have been crazy busy. Then this panic hit and we are at something around 1/2 full. (I’m being intentionally vague, don’t confuse that with dishonest).
Tx, but this lay-off (They are calling it a 3 month furlough) is nationwide.
I just called Tesla insurance and here's the official answer:
They're working on the detailed refund plans but it's not finalized yet. The only thing they can do now, which will take effect immediately, is to lower the annual mileage.
They said decision makings are slow because they're only in business for 7 months
which I think is reasonable. Once it's finalized they'll notify us.
But my annual mileage is already low now so the recalculation only saves me about $10 per month. So I think I'll just wait for the official plan.

Tesla Insurance definitely has growing pains. I had to file a complaint with the state insurance commissioner when an agent told me they couldn't add a non-Tesla vehicle to my account for 3 months. Once the commissioner's office contacted Tesla, someone immediately reached out and we had the vehicle on my policy the same day.

California also just announced that they will be giving every illegal alien in the state $500. Have special companies that claim to know where they all are and will distribute the $$$.
Switched my mileage from 10k to 2k and premium went down by $25 a month through Geico. Nothing spectacular. Thought it would be more but better than nothing. I think this should still be on top of the 15% they are crediting for policy renewals.
Tesla offered a considerably better rate for 2k annual mileage but switching back to 10k after would be the same. Not worth it in the end to switch.

Also related to emergency room visits and direct admissions from doctors. Strokes, MI’s, heart failure patients... it’s not just the elective surgeries. People are terrified to come to hospitals. Many doctors are encouraging patients try to manage their worsening conditions at home, so by the time they do come in they are in really bad shape.
How do you think your fruits and veggies are harvested? These folks are now deemed essential, glad CA is stepping up to help.
