Self quarantine is an option if you are concerned (assuming you can find toilet paper). Minor league baseball continues, NASCAR continues, Olympic trials continue so not sure "the rest of the sports world" is with the NBA and college basketball. That may change but asking government to take charge of my life is not anywhere near my wheelhouse.
You don’t seem to be taking this pandemic quite serious enough. Yesterday a gentleman walked into a pro shop To check in and announced that he had just returned from Italy. He was coughing and wiping his nose. I think we all should be concerned since we are in a most vulnerable age group here in The Villages. Although you may not like government interference in your life, it is very important that you follow the guidelines that they have suggested. Not to do so would be foolish and selfish. Frankly, I am hoping that many of the concerts scheduled in the very near future are canceled. It is just a matter of time before Sumter county is affected. We do not live in a “bubble.“ Wake up, sir or madam.
