the services and goods that they are missing, so it’s really that others need to get back to work for them?

At first i thought it was people out of work that were leading
these protests to reopen, but I’ve seen mostly interviews where protestors are not talking about job loss but are talking about services like hair salons they want open and items they want to buy from stores that are closed

I bet it’s a lot of those same assholes that come to a store at 8:02 when the store closes at 8:00 and tug at the locked door and then yell for the workers inside closing up the shop to open up for them

I can say that the majority of people in the rural and outlying areas of Nevada are generally not social diatancing. They are going about their business including gatherings. I heard that our neighbors on the next block were hosting karaoke 3 nights a week. I see cars parked in front of friends' houses for dinner. There are still no recorded cases in Esmeralda County - but there also hasbeenno testing. Many must believe that the virus will never get here, that it's just a Las Vegas and Reno problem. The problem is, when it does reach here, everyone will probably be exposed to it, and there are no medical facilities in this county.
