Yeah, neither are we. I was hoping against hope that it might seem less irresponsible soon. My wife has a birthday coming up and I was trying to arrange a weekend getaway where we have a timeshare, maybe invite a bull she hasn't seen in a while, thinking "what better birthday gift for a lady who's job has been non-stop turbulence and hasn't had 10 minutes away from her fighting children in (by then) 3 months?"
The US saw it's highest single-day coronavirus related death toll just last Friday, just as states are starting to open back up, and we're not in much better shape to test and treat this now than we were two months ago. A very close friend of ours is a doctor at Dever Health. The way she so eloquently put it was:
"The lifting of stay-at-home orders doesn't mean the pandemic is behind us. It means there's currently room for you in the ICU."
We want to go out and play as much as anybody, but it's really hard for us to justify potentially spreading something we have been so careful to avoid in recent weeks and months. I'm trying not to judge others when I see them making travel plans. People are going to do what they're going to do, and we're not in charge of anyone but ourselves and our family, but as long as we have the ability to minimize the probability that we'll be part of the problem, we're going to. We have each other for now, and she'll still be hot when it's safe to go out again.
This ******* sucks.
