Yep. My favorite place to spend time has always been my home. Just because I own a vehicle doesn`t mean I`m obligated to use it every day. Hopefully, millions of people are realizing that.
Most people are home bodies unless they go out to eat to feed their faces hence why there’s a problem with obesity in this country.
I had both the 1957 Flu Pandemic and that 1968 Flu Pandemic, and many more times with other epidemics over the years. Correct nothing was shut down, but you don't have to go that far back in time. What was shut down during the 2009 Flu Pandemic? Everyone posting on here should remember that Pandemic.
I don't recall a pandemic in 2009. I do recall businesses shutting down for economic reasons and people losing their jobs.
Explain to me how someone will eat and drink with a mask on?
It seems we will be heading into an extended phase of confusion.. many believe they know what is right or appropriate, so there will be issues. I would like to think that everyone would be conscious and dealing with it as one should, but we see what can occur.

105 minute wait at our local great clips, the only one open in the entire state or within 250 miles of here... though the ones in Rapid City are slated to open on Monday. Traffic in this area is easily back up to within 75% of normal. In the Brookings area word of mouth has spread the fact that the virus was over-hyped so now a good chunk of the people believe this. It only takes a few people to actually do the research and start spreading it around... the fact that 20% or more already have antibodies in heavily infected areas for example... people are still taking precautions but they are living their lives, going so far as to have softball games outside and cut the yellow tape off the playground equipment so kids can use the swings.
That said, our plant is still having it's first 50-66% layoff in it's history, because the demand for medical products has plummeted because all the hospitals are empty because they are not doing elective procedures yet.
