The Villagers have been amazing at sticking to their lockdown, protecting themselves when out and wearing masks. The reason is simple, we are far more vulnerable to dying than the younger crowd outside the village. I am personally not concerned about other villagers and would feel comfortable even in closer proximity at social gatherings.
However, out side the villages, the infection rates are much higher. The danger to villagers is not other villagers, it is from the younger waiters, clerks, cooks, bartenders who live outside and have been far less dilligent about protecting themselves.
