Went to the post office which was empty until we began the process of using the machine to get postage for several outgoing packages. At that point, at least six other people came in (it’s Sunday; the post office is closed; most were dropping stamped mail and packages).
Out of all those people, only one (other than Tom and I) was wearing a mask. My anxiety level went higher with each arrival.
Seeing photos of all the restaurants open for Mother’s Day, teeming with people keeping zero distance between lines and tables (one near Denver said it was their biggest Mother’s Day ever), just dumbfounds me. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom! I’m giving you COVID-19 this year!
Do they have to actually know healthcare workers who can tell them the truth to believe this is real and dangerous? Even without knowing anyone sick or dead, why are only some of us willing to protect ourselves and other people using two of the simplest yet effective methods: give people space and wear a mask.
I don’t get it.
