I do wish more restaurants would repurpose their wait staff to do delivery. I hate grub hub and ubereats, and would order about 5x as often if I didn't have to get dressed to go pick it up.

That's the part I get stuck on. I haven't eaten inside a restaurant since March, and the reason isn't the ban on indoor eating in restaurants. The reason is that I don't want to sit inside a building with my mask off, and a bunch of other people with their masks off, to eat.

When they were open, my family and I went often to support restaurants that we care about. So, did lots of other people, but tables are spaced way out and I understand disease transmission, so I was not worried.

Oh, you "understand disease transmission"? Ok then you must know they vary. Which disease or diseases do you "understand"?

Uh, I have graduate degrees in Human Physiology and Public Health, so yeah, I understand when I need to be nervous. I also understand policy as theater, so can differentiate between the two.

Both schools and restaurants should be open. MOCo is a joke. Look at other states that have had schools open all year, restaurants re-opened for months and have had common sense approach to masks/distancing. Their spikes/infection rate/deaths are not much different than MD or MOCo. For some reason, our leadership and clearly the majority of people in the county think they are just smarter than everyone else. What arrogance...the coastal elites...
