[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand about contagious diseases but it is also a major impact to isolate yourself from your life for 5-10 days. This can ruin a vacation, a big event like a wedding, a school or work event, etc. If we go crazy with this and then have everyone who may have possibly come in contact with that person also isolate for 5-10 days it shuts down society again. I feel that those impacts are far greater than having a respiratory infection for a couple of days.[/quote]

The way to avoid having society shutdown again is to know whether you have a highly communicable respiratory disease spread via aerosols and stay home/isolate. The way you know that is by testing. [/quote]

Shocking, that those who complained about "shut downs" don't seem to understand simple science and try to not infect others.  It's basic empathy as well.  I don't want to give others a simple, basic cold let alone covid or the flu or RSV or anything else contagious
So we stay home when sick.  We isolate within the house, so we can avoid spreading it to others.  Nothing worse than the entire house having covid, including the kids, which means you must care for others while you are really sick.  If we must go out, we try to do curbside pickup, but wear a high quality mask if entering a store.
