I don't go out except when I have to, I'm retired and live alone so that helps. I had an appt at a local hospital/clinic today and that went fine but on the way home I was near to a WalMart and wanted to pick up a couple of replacement network cables...pulled into the lot and it was pretty much completely filled and I stopped and reconsidered. Did not see a single masked individual going in or out of the store. Listening to the local NPR radio in my car on the way I heard a report that the local hospitals and county health dept had upped the Covid 19 alert levels to "critical" and on a big upswing...Well, I didn't get out of my car and went home, just ordered the cables from evil Bezos, come in two days and likely cheaper than the giant WalMart petri dish..."my story, okay, I was born a poor white child"...
