The UPS guy making deliveries is fine. Having family over for dinner isn't. The situation would look different now, had there been proper leadership in January.

The UPS guy making deliveries is fine. Having family over for dinner isn't. The situation would look different now, had there been proper leadership in January. When the President says "It's a flu. HOAX!" his fans believe him, and that's why in France, Germany, Italy and Spain new cases are declining but in the US they are still going up.
In my deep red corner of the woods there's different cars in front of each house seemingly every other day and music, too. That's what you do in the face of the plague, you party!

From my personal experience, the people I know who are fans of him and the people I know who want nothing to do with him are both not treating this seriously. They are okay with visiting a friend, going shopping just to get out the house, not trying to reduce their shopping trips to once a week or less but instead going out daily. People going out daily to get food from restaurants. Where I worked a transitioned to WFH for about 98% of the employees, but so many were still stopping by the office that the employees who couldn't work from home and felt they were at increased risk eventually contacted upper management and now every visit to the office is recorded and a manager has to provide a justification for why that employee had to be on site. I think we have to look at little deeper into the America psyche to see what is driving this. (As for where I live, the 2016 vote was almost a 50/50 split in the surrounding area.)
