Took a flight last week and attended a concert in North Dakota. Did some traveling in Sioux Falls as well.
I have been heading the gym a lot more lately, about 3 times a week. Nice seeing people getting exercise.
Headed to a restaurant tomorrow with a group of people. Slowly we are getting back to normal. I do my best with social distancing but at some point we have to live our lives.

I guess it depends on where you are and the rate of infection there.
I was stuck in commuter traffic last night. Didn't mind a bit.....felt almost normal. First time in a long time. Used to bitch and moan and avoid it like the plague. Had a grin on my face all the way home.

So far from normal and getting worse.
8000 people die in the US. What is not normal is that people are dying alone without their families, morning alone. What is not normal is the panic and fear that is fanned daily.Normal will never be the "normal" we knew.
But, no, 1000 AmeriCANs are dying every day now; I hope to God that isn't "normal". Trying to act normal, pretending that we can go about our business as we used to do is only going to make things worse and make the misery last longer. IMHO.

I came home last night and drove past the little league field; hundreds of people watching the game. I smiled. Awesome. Can't wait to get stuck behind a school bus....
Nearly 3 million die every year; 200 k from alzheimers and diabetes another 200k from respiratory diseases another 650k in heart disease. If you are among this million and you test positive with Covid19 yours is a Covid19 death.Where are you from? 161,000 people have died from COVID in the US. Large gatherings of people is whats exacerbating and extending the duration of this crisis. For the first time ... ever ... and American passport is ... worthless. We have mismanaged COVID here to the point no responsible nation wants us. This is a serious cantagion, it's not going away like magic, a vacine isn't happening soon, we really have to start acting responsibly no matter how irresponsible our president insists on being.

I hope Dr Scott Atlas starts doing the Covid19 briefings in the afternoons with the president.
I hate to be the one breaking it to you.....you are going to die.
If you are vulnerable and expose yourself to someone with nonsymptomatic Covid19, who was irresponsible? If you have vulnerable people in your care and you expose them to Covid19, who was irresponsible?I know the incongruity of your two posts escapes you but, in the first you (feign) compassion for vitems dying alone and family members greiving alone. Where in the second it's basically a dog eat dog eat **** and die attitude.
But the truth is MANY maybe as many as Half or MORE COVID deaths could have and could still be avoided IF we had proper leadership, a united plan and a citzenry on board and working to prevent them. I've recently had the "death" talk with my Grandson; part of that was everybody dies sooner or later so live life fully. BUT! Don't live life stupid. Yes, we all die but don't be the dumb ass that dies because you were irresponsible. Only and ass hole like Donald tRump could live with himself after the way he's handled this pandemic; many deaths are a direct result of HIS irresponsibility.<--PERIOD

We collectively (Trump) successfully flattened the curve (months ago) a possible achievement. Preventing death not possible and really the point of the new goal posts.
I didn't change the argument. It was changed from flattening the curve to not overwhelm hospitals as they were with H1N1 to preventing death.You're Changing the argument. The point is lack of leadership and it's exacerbation of COVID cases and deaths. "tRUMP", fought tooth and nail against Medical Leadership ALL ALONG and STILL IS!

Nope, no flat curve after March when the virus really got going; it was in January and February where we (tRUMP) did NOTHING that we (tRump) really blew it, but ALL ALONG the way tRump (the US) has been leading in the wrong direction.
(Your last sentence is incomplete and *unintelligible.)
I didn't change the argument. It was changed from flattening the curve to not overwhelm hospitals as they were with H1N1 to preventing death.
Are Covid19 patients overwhelming hospitals? Does anyone needing a ventilator going without? The answer to both questions is an emphatic no.
Truthful, could we have shut down the country in February?
I attended a convention in the middle of March, literally visited Disney Springs the night before the shutdown. Last day of normal. No way in hell, Americans would have accepted that in February. I still question it now.
What was the legislature doing in the days you believe Trump should have acted? I recall it being all about impeachment and as Trump acted xenophobia.

“Stupider people” go to Walmart and home improvement stores? Not the smartest thing to say, considering a great many people social distanced and wore masks when shopping at Walmart and home improvement stores before it became mandatory.I will do the smart thing
I do my workouts at home, I cook most of my own food lately, I video chat with my friends on a regular basis, I work from home (I did before this all got started anyway), and I avoid the stores where stupider people tend to go (walmart, home improvement stores, etc) when possible (I have to pay more for some stuff, but oh well).
I will continue to do this until a vaccine is shown as safe and effective.
