[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Flatten the curve.  That means don’t go anywhere with other people unless necessary.  Even with amazing hygiene practices, you defeat the community efforts of social distancing if you choose to go to the gym or workout studio.  Stay home.  This isn’t a drill and it sucks, but everyone has to do their part if we want to keep the situation under control.  If you convince yourself it’s ok when you do it because you wipe stuff down, you are the weak link.  Please reconsider and read up on why flattening the curve through aggressive social distancing is so important and not something you can shrug off simply because you are young and healthy. [/quote]

Everyone is still going to the grocery store, Target, Walmart, Costco, the pet store in droves.  Fast food places are busy.  People are pumping gas and going inside to pay.

With the kids out of school and more and more people teleworking there are going to be more people out at the stores during the week.  Once you've been inside a crowded Walmart or Costco you begin to realize that you are around A LOT of people.  Add in a family member or two who might work retail/food service/health care or some other service industry....

My own concern is that there are now man more asymptomatic healthy people out spreading this around.  There are no longer non busy hours for the more vulnerable people to go out and get what they need.  It used to be that my 84 year old mother could go to the store during the middle of a week day when there were fewer shoppers around.  Now, the stores are always busy.[/quote]
