So, before you get back to your life as you knew it before COVID-19, I beg you to consider the healthcare workers. Have you thought about which hospital you would go to if you would require hospitalization? Have you considered the first responders, nurses and other healthcare providers and their families? Perhaps another few weeks of self-isolation and selflessness might be the best idea. I know that all of us want to go back to life as we knew it. You may be longing to go back to the squares, but none of us want to go back to square one. So I beseech you, consider your fellow man.
What a fantastic message Donna! I truly mean it.

On another message I posed a moral question about the freedom/versus health question. I TOTALLY forgot (and am embarrassed and sorry) I neglected to consider the front-line hospital workers in my thoughts. YIKES! SO SORRY!

You're ABSOLUTELY correct to consider their health and well-being! I'll try to edit. Nevertheless, GREAT point about needlessly endangering health workers!
