That’s a very good question about the powers a governor has to cancel an event like Oceanside 70.3
It’s an executive order requiring local health authorities to act to protect public health. The permits for the race are from the city of Oceanside and US Marine Camp Pendleton, so they can withdraw permission citing the local health emergency. San Diego County is probably also involved somehow.
Here is the executive order:

Just heard from a friend who's in PR for the 70.3 that there's talks of postponing / cancelling the race there. Still, there's no official communication yet.
This information is also in the comments on 70.3 Puerto Rico Facebook page. It seems that the PR Governor issued a statement that all events and gatherings of 250 or more should be postponed or cancelled. It also seems that IM has sent an email to volunteers and athletes.

It is not endurance related, but the NCAA BBall tournaments (Mens and Womens) has been cancelled.

Yup... they're taking the racks down. I guess this will have a snowball effect now.

Ya, not endurance related, but in keeping with the OP, you could say that the March madness tourney is kind of like the TDF. Not every day for each team, but if you make it to the final, you played a lot of games that month. At any rate, this is probably the biggest thing going on in the US at this time of year. Certainly the folks that take bets for a living, are going to see a giant hole in their business.
Nothing is safe now, and like Halvard in his little country that has shut down everything, we will not be far behind it appears.

Messick's statement here is pretty mindboggling. "Athlete density will be decreased by increasing individual race space staging, corrals, etc". The guy is clueless.
Next races on the schedule: none at the moment

Let’s face it, not one of these races scheduled in the next couple of months is going to happen and likely much longer than that.

The Cactus Cup stage race scheduled for this weekend in Phoenix is postponed because, unusually for here, we are having 4 straight days of heavy rain. It has been re-scheduled for April 3-5 but most likely won't happen.

Just been notified that the Monte Rio race in NorCal has been cancelled. Was scheduled for June 14th.

Well Superseal website says it is cancelled.This is an Ironman brand and there will be way less people here compared to Oceanside. So only logical conclusion is Oceanside will be cancelled. I'm sure they are just waiting till last minute so some chumps will still sign up for a charity slot. I’m getting robbed big time between Ironman and the markets.
