Restaurants, bars, and nursing homes are known to have the highest instances of CV spread. WE have to choose between loving our neighbor and preventing them from dying or becoming a "long hauler" or choosing to keep bars and restaurants open and to keep their owners making their MONEY. Love versus Money. It has been the dilemma throughout history. Personally, I feel that the bar and restaurant owners NEEDED to SAVE their profits for this CV rainy day. They can either close, modify to delivery, invest in the stock market, or just try some other business. That would be an inconvenience to them, but it would NOT kill them and possibly kill their unsuspecting customers. We can NOT pretend this Pandemic away!
Many of us Villagers are waiting to go to be with others. An ounce of prevention.
