[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am really interested to see how this plays out for the fall. The shifting perceptions and behavior could not be more confusing. One week we are making sure we do not walk on the same side of the street as anyone else in our neighborhood and the next week 10k people are protesting at close distances downtown. I am fully supportive of the protests but it is interesting that they totally get a pass and that any other large event is strictly out of the question. I do think it helps that they are all outside. But, couldn’t classes be outside? Potential bad weather would make that tricky of course. So many people are so over quarantining that it seems like we are going to be overly reckless in some ways and overprotective in others. I do not know what the answer is — but I would love to somehow get my three kids out of my house and doing something more productive :)! [/quote]

I agree, PP. for what it’s worth, I’m somebody who embodies the paradox. We’ve been doing a good job social distancing, wearing masks, etc., but then we took our kids down to the protests at the White House. We were internally conflicted but also felt compelled to go... I’m also wondering about school, and hoping they can get back at least partially in person. I wish we had better answers. I don’t wish I’ll on people who want to end the quarantine, I understand. We’re humans and we’re expecting superhuman restraint from the majority of the population. It just don’t work.[/quote]
