I will ask you to defer to the experts on this one. The WHO has stated that shutdowns have been catastrophic to communities, sending people into despair and poverty. The WHO does not recommend shutdowns saying that they do far more harm than good. The CDC has stated that children are safer in school and that they should be receiving face to face instruction. I look at this information and, to me, that means that we need to stop worrying so much about things that are really beyond our control. Medical doctors are saying that we need to keep working and sending our kids to school or risk catastrophic and irreversible damage to our communities.
Wear a mask, maintain good social distance but realize that the people eating out at restaurants, shopping at the stores, taking fitness classes at the gyms, attending schools are helping to keep our communities thriving, too. We need to stop second guessing each other and work on mitigating our own risks as necessary.

The CV Plague was ignored as far back as February 2020. That is why today the people of the US and TV Land are required by REALITY to now NOT ignore the Virus. The reaction to CV was BAD then and it is STILL bad today. You can HOPE for a vaccine to make everything normal, but it is too LATE. Current History will be marked as pre-CV and after-CV. HOPE is NOT a strategy. US society needs to "look the problem in the eye" and STOP ignoring it!
