D&D and the rising pandemic

I believe the summary of the travel restrictions is:

Jeez, I did mean that as a joke. I hope he didn't quit the boards because of that. If so, I'm really sorry. Just trying to inject a little levity into the conversation.

Wouldn't worry about it.

Best Korea I mean North Korea reports first case.

North Korea on alert over 'first suspected coronavirus case'

State media say a defector who returned from South Korea has Covid-19 symptoms.

Leaves Turkmenistan as the last country with more than a million as "virus free".

If not... take your judgement off to Supposition Canyon, and dump it in the gorge. It isn't worth the electrons you used to type it.

Well, that's just rude and completely uncalled for. There's 0% chance of a reasonable discussion on the topic now.

If an opinion on legality was formed without reference to the order in question, we weren't starting with a discussion based on reason.

Opinions in conflict with reality are largely the reason we are in our current predicament, so I'm rather fed up with them.

Conflating this with conspiracies and refusing to wear masks as a political point is a bit extreme.

I agree with your position about the order. It's just a little far to compare not understanding how state orders work and arguing against the world's doctors after they have had an extensive information campaign to tell people what to do.

Interestingly, I didn't mention either of those things, so... not really persuasive.

We aren't talking about Damage on a Miss, or some other frivolity. This is a thing that impacts thousands of lives - indeed, perhaps thousands of deaths. Coming to an opinion without even reading the order is not what I'd call reasonable or responsible.

Coming up on a hundred fifty thousand dead in the US. That's not extreme enough for you? How many more dead will it need to be to justify stridency in your eyes? 200K? Half a million?

While I understand their concerns of liability and employee safety, I am sorely disappointed that these businesses are taking a non-enforcement approach to masking orders. Personally, I’d be hiring more security personnel. (I understand bar bouncers are looking for work...)

I think you're tilting at windmills here.
