This pandemic is raging in our country, despite that there are those that say otherwise. How do I know? There are hospitals in the good old USA that are reaching or are at capacity. They are setting up satellite hospital beds in parking lots for Covid patients. That is just sad. I can not believe that is happening in our country.
Wear a mask.
Social distance.
Wash hands frequently.
Don't touch your face with unwashed hands.
Simple stuff we all should be doing to slow the spread of this virus until a vaccine can be distributed to the general population.

Like I said, I don't disagree. I just won't become a member of the mass hysteria club. I do what is right according to what I believe, not because it makes someone else happy. I am not responsible for you (no offense meant) so just don't put yourself in harms way and we will both get along favorably. If I am out and about, it is because I do not feel there is any danger of my becoming infected and carrying it home to my spouse. I feel that if you (generalizing) fear exposure, then you should take the proper precautions and not rely on others to "protect" you. Sorry if that offends others, but if one wishes to live foolishly and take chances with their own lives, it's not up to me to set them straight or bend over backward to protect them. Time for the weak to put on adult pants and take responsibility for their own lives. Not rely on others or the gov to coddle them. I have no intention of protecting the foolish. Stay away from me whether I am wearing a mask or not.
By the way, I don't wear sun screen when I am working in the yard, either. I live dangerously.
