We saw RJ Gators too last night. Reminded us of Mallory Square at sunset in Key West. Beautiful night to be out and enjoying the fresh air. We just traveled on SWA from The Villages to Idaho and back. No problems. We have not gotten sick or feel afraid. We need a few germs in our system to fight off bugs!

Knowing you are infected and endangering others illegal. If someone did not know they had HIV they would not be arrested. There's a big difference.

My issue with this is that those who are congregating in crowds and "having fun" is that no one knows who may be a carrier of the virus. I hope that everyone stays safe and does not contract the virus. Those of us who are more cautious can stay away from crowded restaurants, bars, town squares but still exercise by walking, riding bikes, golfing, etc. But we also have to occasionally go to the grocery or the pharmacy. That is where we are most at risk of catching the virus from those who are not following the governments guidelines about social distancing and wearing masks. Please wear a mask when in the grocery or pharmacy to minimize viral transmission to the more cautious among us. Remember viral transmission can and does occur prior to symptoms. Symptoms are often the result of the immune response against the virus. The virus comes first, the immune response comes second, and the symptoms come third. Hopefully immunity then occurs.

Something is going to get you sooner or later. Be safe, but you better enjoy life.

So sick and tired of the doom and gloomers. Most of the mortality is in nursing homes, compromised health wise and ENCLOSED! Open, fresh air is GOOD FOR YOU! The economy is being flushed down the toilet and you want to hide. There is an almost zero mortality rate in children. The villagers who have been control tested for the virus has shown very little contact and not everyone who catches the virus dies! There is no way to eradicate this. We will have to live with it like we do a lot of other diseases. Just because people want to get back to normal does not make them STUPID. The amount of people who want to control others behaviors is amazing. If you want your behavior controlled, move to China, they seem to be good at it.

It only takes one person not showing symptoms to spread the virus. People talking loudly spew the droplets

You left out prisons and jails in the numbers of deaths. They are included in whatever locality they may be.

They have found new affects to children. 90 children had a mild case and two weeks later they developed severe complications and some of them have died!

So if some of the people who think this is no big deal and don’t realize they can spread the virus to vulnerable people when they do not have symptoms, should not expect care from the health care providers who are putting their lives on the line? Sounds fair

The Village people made it thru with out many cases or deaths so I am surmising unless a host appears and many get infected the same will continue based on past exposures. Time will tell and until that time these people are out whooping it up. Everyone has a choice even if there are bad ones!!!!

Yes Gators has been really rocking lately. My problem is that they are not keeping their distance and no masks. Who is to say they may be right next to you in a store, etc. And could be a carrier. You will never know.
So they are enjoying themselves and other may have to pay the price. Just saying.
Think before you leap. There are other out there trying their best to stay alive.
