This is why it was dumb to keep the lockdown going after we got the healthcare system up and ready. Whenever you open up you are back to the same problem you had. It’s all not ideal, but people making it seem like those who want to end the lockdown are monsters, are really just blindly following the media (who have jobs and are getting tons of views/ratings from keeping this up)

D3 - like I said, even healthy 20 somethings die from COVID, let's not be callous and make a joke about just old people in hospital beds. It is very misguided and makes people think they're "safer" than another population demographic. Just practice social distancing and be safe so we can all come out of this together 💪

OP, you seem like the kind of person that enjoys making "edgy" comments because you aren't getting enough attention in your personal life. You probably think this is because your physical appearance, or because you aren't rich, or because you were picked last in gym class... but if you that if you really want the kind of attention you desire, you should consider being an empathetic, thoughtful, selfless person. The real reason nobody pays any attention to you is because you lack those qualities.

If this is not gone, and will come back, isn’t that the logic for not doing social distancing or any type of lock down at all? People can’t go on like this for the next few years. So might as well peel the band aid as soon as possible while keeping the most vulnerable distanced.

Saying 3 weeks did nothing undermines the efficacy of lockdown. Lockdowns do not all of the sudden work on on the Xth day. It’s not a binary thing. If 3 weeks is not long enough, then what is long enough? Who gets to determine? Using which data? What other factors are taken into account (e.g., quality of life, preservation of our society, economic impact)? Why is it up to strategy manager 1 to arbitrarily say when consultant OP gets to make a risk assessment about whether or not he/she feels comfortable about going into a restaurant?

Hi Everyone! Between corona and snowstorms, “real life” is seeming as far off as anything else. Curious to hear what some people are doing to keep their employees engaged? Zoom happy hours are dead.. we did a few “virtual contests” (i.e., everyone submitted a pic of themselves dressed up for Halloween, allowing former years as entries, and made a slide show for voting the winner), but I’d like to go a little bigger. Suggestions??

How to deal with an overly paranoid family member? I've been working from my parents place for the past month and my brother recently came home for the holidays. Out of all of us, my brother is the most cautious, but to the point where he is paranoid. Like, he will wear 2 masks, doesn't see anyone, uses hand sanitizer after touching anything (like his shoelace), and doesn't use grocery store baskets (holds everything). I respect his habits and I've been pretty cautious (cont. in comments)
