Blind faith in “assessing penalties “that’s what I find absolutely astounding. As if.Originally Posted by jp1
Oh also, I have friends who are in Austria right now. They are in Austria, wagging their fingers at dumb Americans who are just dumb because we are stupid.I know they’re in Austria because I was emailing one of them about canceling our May event because I think it’s delusional to continue planning for it and he said he agreed with me. Then he said oh yeah we’re in Austria and when we get back we’ll un-plan the event.
Ha Ha Ha. This stuff, Can’t make it up.
That’s surprising to me that you don’t know anyone who is traveling. I know Many.
It's depressing not just that cases are high but that here hospitals have had no capacity for weeks and no doubt weeks more to follow the holidays. It's such a background psychic strain on top of whatever other stresses life throws, knowing not just that covid is everywhere, but that there is no hospital capacity not only for covid but for ANYTHING. One re-thinks things like taking a drive to nowhere (which I've done out of pandemic boredom) because if one got in a car accident well there is no room at the hospitals etc.. Even non-emergency care is impacted as the line for urgent care is hours.
Why access penalties on people though, rather than shut down the airports? How seriously can anyone take potential penalties, when the airlines are booked up and flying in and out? There are other ways to travel but it certainly would send a message they were actually serious. Only 20% or so of people plan to travel for the holidays here though according to the news. But we have enough covid to give the rest of the country another wave if those vaccines don't come fast. Have some covid! It's on us. Cheers.
But everything is against public health recommendations including all human contact. Seeing my boyfriend even though we are a bubble of two, and I have stayed away when there have been covid outbreaks at his work, as we don't live together, ergo it's illegal. Visiting with anyone outdoors and distanced which I have done here and there etc.. And I'm a criminal, and have been nothing but a low down dirty criminal in the pandemic for seeing my partner etc. It is what it is, we all turn to a life of crime if we have to.

I know many also and they have no shame. They write about it in their Christmas cards.
I know far too many, and they seem to be people of all different political outlooks.
Everyone thinks they are special, and are immortal.
We will visit outside with masks on in 39 degrees with my kids and exchange food to take home . They made goodies and I lasagna. My best friend dropped off dinner to her 86 year old mom and zoomed with her daughter and grandchildren who live in the same town. Her husband works in a casino.
I think I would happily sleep for 3 days. My bf can join me in bed if he wants
Oh I will probably get dragged in to meeting with people outside and distanced which is against the public health recommendations and in fact illegal, but also very low risk as things go. But I'd also be ok with not leaving my bed.

Note how no one feels it's their responsibility to contact-trace. We're just pathetic all around.
