We are well past our peak and are essentially "reopened" with officials planning how to reopen school in the Fall.

Masks are "required" in grocery stores. I shop in one of the most educated places in the country and yet about 1 in 10 people don't wear masks even though there is a sign at the front of each store saying that masks are required. I wish the grocery stores would enforce masks. I'd consider complaining to the management but I'm guessing my complaints would fall on deaf ears. For the record, Trader Joe's enforces their mask policy. I take my business there whenever possible.

I'm 62 and in a higher risk category only because of my demographics, I'm pretty healthy for my age and I want to stay that way!

I fucking wear my mask and take precautions! I guess I can understand why many young people don't seem to care but I think they are being quite stupid and naive. OK, maybe their chance of dying is half what mine is... mine is high enough that I'll be frightened until we have a vaccine.
