Unfortunately or not, I have a feeling this pandemic will to some extent separate the cautious, careful, prudent population from the rigid, anti-science, ideological, don't-fence-me-in crowd. It's a mistake to call them freedom lovers. We all love freedom, but there is freedom as it pertains to organized government and civil rights, and there is freedom as it relates to anarchy, libertarianism, autocracy. Lot of overlaps going on depending on how you look at it. But the let-it-roll crowd runs risks with a calamitous illness.
