The difference is how many people you want to take with you into the grave.
You might kill yourself from depression, if you can't get out to the bocce court.
You might die of Covid-19 AND spread it to a dozen other people, if you CAN get out to the bocce court.
Though, I think the Villages residents are doing a pretty decent job of keeping the virus casualties to a minimum, I'm also glad we're maintaining the social distancing rules now that some of the activities are opening back up.
