To the best of my knowledge, we have no COVID-19 cases in our county. I made my every-two-weeks trek to the grocery
this morning, and, at 10:a.m. on Sunday, there was no crowd. Things were fairly well stocked except for paper goods,
and sugar. I got one of their few bags of sugar, and the manager said only a few are coming in.
No one was using masks or gloves. The checkout stands do have plastic barriers between the checker and the customer.
People were spacing out properly, and things were going smoothly.
I am perhaps too easily bemused. This stuff kills, and does so disproportionately for the elderly and apparently esp.
male elderly. Why would anyone NOT wear mask and gloves when shopping?
I finally saw an article questioning the WHO and CDC assertions that masks are not necessary for those not ill. They are
people focused on overall, average outcomes, not whether the low odds happen to come up for me - or you.
Wow, we get to see Thursday's junk mail today, and use groceries from our Thursday shopping. Anything that's come into
house or garage, by glove wearing us, sits for four days before being touched again. If something is used earlier, it's
disinfect the item and/or washing the hands that touched it time.
Good luck to all in beating the odds.
