But what we are doing now is about mitigating risks.

While they add to their risk, nothing like if they were going to bars, nail salons and ignoring social distancing.

As we learn more it appears almost all spread is about being in close, prolonged indoor exposure to infected people. Even surfaced don’t seem to spread it much which is not surprising

If everyone kept this and mind and let it shape their behavior we could get this under control and not shut down everything. Unfortunately, I’m not optimistic. Trump politicized it and now his crazies see taking precautions as a political statement.
