Somehow I don’t have your confidence—I haven’t even gone inside the bars. Anyway I’m not worried for myself, I’m gonna be fine in all likelihood—it’s my at-ris

Somehow I don’t have your confidence—I haven’t even gone inside the bars.
Anyway I’m not worried for myself, I’m gonna be fine in all likelihood—it’s my at-risk friends and family.
- clairity 6y agotoo many people are beholden to irrational fear with this pandemic, rather than understanding. going into a bar is not a problem for your at-risk friends or family. it's what you do inside that matters. having a physically distant beer with a friend (assuming an uncrowded bar, as is required in most places) is quite low risk. geting hammered and carrying on with a bunch of in-your-face strangers is not. just avoid exchanging spit with strangers. being outside is the easiest and best method, and maintaining a little distance is a close second. wear a mask indoors if you can't maintain distance. it's easy. then you can set the fear aside and move on with your life.
