The thing i constantly wonder about #COVID19 is how many people may live with lifelong diminished health because they couldn't say:
"Let's sit on the patio, not inside the restaurant."
"Let's go to the beer garden rather than that crowded bar."
"Let's do take-out or delivery tonight, instead."
"I'll attend that meeting virtually."
"No, I'm not sick. I'm masked so that I don't get sick and get others sick."
People act like COVID caution means sacrifice and isolation. It doesn't need to.
