A friend from NM has indicated that they are in full lockdown.
But many are blowing it off.
Do you see that ?
I had a humorous experience last night at my local Walgreen's. They've actually marked off with tape each six feet of space you're supposed to distance yourself from others who are in line. I went a BIT over a line, and remarked, "Oops, I was only five and a half feet away from you, am I going to be arrested?" The woman I said this to failed to see the humor in my comment. Which was humorous in itself.
You just can't expect some people to understand the humor in somethings.
I see a lot of people in our little community that get together every night for happy hour. They don't even think about two feet little own six.
I don't see the need to run over and police them. The people at all the stores we go in are the usual distance away. They are cheerful and happy don't mind handling money.
I suppose we could all cower under the bed for six eight years in the hopes it will all be safe by then or we can accept the same amount of risk we do every time we get in a car, step into a street, or fly in a plane. It all depends on how you want to live what you call life.
First of all, by "little own" I think you meant "let alone." But how should I know?
Yes, life has risks. But if you jump out of an airplane, you can mitigate the risk of turning into hamburger by wearing a parachute. The point of isolating isn't to prevent you from EVER getting covid-19, it's to prevent everybody from getting it at the same time, which would overwhelm the hospitals (as I keep posting). If the hospitals are overwhelmed, people who could have been saved will die because there aren't enough ventilators and other supplies. And you should isolate not just for yourself, but more importantly, for people in high-risk categories, who you might give the virus to. Do you really want to kill your grandma?
