Whelp…
With things as they are these days with this COVID-19 and all, I've been mostly staying home. Did have to go over to the bank for some business though. Traffic is down quite a bit around here. The grocery store is pretty picked over. Fortunately there is still plenty of toilet paper* at the house.
No confirmed cases in this county yet, but that will change soon enough I'm sure.
I'm not particularly afraid of catching this stuff, even if being over 60. I think anyone who expects not to be exposed eventually, is deluding themselves.
However, this does not justify a cavalier attitude at all. Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. We do what we can, after that, it's not really in our control - is it?
However it really does show how much we are connected to each other, even internationally. One would think that Climate Change would have already done this, but Politics…
The US and China are probably the two biggest international players these days. It is a bit disheartening to see them blaming each other for this pandemic. We might never know exactly how it started. Viruses mutate, apparently.
But…Why do we even need someone to blame?
Maybe Mother Nature is trying to slap some sense into us.
