We still need to apply caution but what we are doing right now is excessive. This is a new virus, there are still a lot of unknowns but the current situation doesn't warrant a complete shutdown. We need to protect the most vulnerable members of our society. We need to make sure that long term care homes have strict procedures and we owe good care to our elderly and vulnerable. They've earned it and we're more than capable of providing it. The facts seem to be that if your young and healthy you have little to worry about. We should still practice good hygiene and reduce unnecessary contact but we need to do our jobs. We need to produce the essentials that our civilization depends on. It's not business as usual but it is a matter of soldiering on so there will be a world to come back to.
