>HN's perspective on lockdowns might be skewed by the fact that most of us here live in places that actually did have a good faith reasonable response to COVID, but it didn't really work in the absence of a coordinated nationwide response. ...care to expand on this hypothesis? I've heard variations on a theme around this. I live in an area which seems to have close to 100% mask compliance for the last several months as near as I can tell, and we still have cases increasing. I guess I'm having a hard time believing that it is visitors from Texas (or where ever) coming in and spreading coronavirus. What it seems to indicate to me, is that public shopping, etc. isn't a driver behind the spread.
