15. The Piggly Wiggly here is like that

The store has never been very clean and occasionally smells really bad, so we almost never went near the place. But every time we drive by, we see lots of people coming and going, all very close together, and not one of them wearing masks or gloves.

The county officially has only a few cases, but the larger counties around us have a lot. These folks are stupidly reckless.
