It is possible that this will be protracted.

I do feel that our patchwork response in the States at least, may lead to this being an uglier summer. I can at least say that I am very tired of the increase in work that is to be done. Regardless of how well my company is doing during the crisis.

Over the past day or so, I’ve been reading about how uncivilly people have been behaving in various recently reopened food establishments here in the USA. An ice cream parlor that closed after 1 day (re-reopening a few days later after the loutishness made the news); an Olive Garden besieged on Mother’s Day, etc.

And then this:

Yeah, staying home for the near future...

Following that link I found this gem of good business.

"Employees at the Dallas locations said management told them that face masks don't fit the restaurant's hospitality mold. "


Yes, killing your customers is a great strategy.

Ugh. This thing is never going to end.
This will not end. 1 in 5 Americans won't get a coronavirus vaccine. If 20% of the population isn't going to immunize themselves to a deadly disease, herd immunity doesn't work. We need to get everyone in america to take a coronavirus vaccine that can safely take a vaccine. There are people in the country who's immune systems are too weak to get vaccines, so it is the duty of everyone else in the country to help save their lives.

The problem with the US is that it's filled with conspiracy theorizing idiots who won't take a shot that'll save their life. It's like Moses and the staff that could've saved the lives of the people bitten by the fiery serpents. People don't like being told what to do, so they'll purposely do the opposite just because they don't want to be bossed around.

This will not end until we can somehow force the antivaxxers to take the vaccine.

Saw that one, too. The employees are NOT happy.

Having been re-listening-to the early Expanse audiobooks recently with their descriptions of Belter gesture-based body language due to them spending much of their time in helmets, I did wonder whether we'll start to develop alternate forms of expression to compensate for having half our face covered in public. Maybe there'll be an app for projecting a smile or frown on a smartphone, and you can hold it up over your actual mouth.
