I live in Ohio--all summer long there have been parties, BBQs, weddings, showers ... you name it. No masks, no social distancing. The attitude of many is that as long as I'm white and fairly well off, Covid will not be a problem for me.

I have heard mentioned at least three times in public that this "will all go away on November 4." For too many, something that doesn't affect them immediately and directly has no meaning.
