@1goodtern New thing. Storm immunity debt. We haven't had enough storms; we stayed inside, sheltered & hid, so we're now more susceptible to storms. If we allow ourselves to get storms, stop fearing them, go out & live our lives, we'll get stormherd immunity & storms will stop. You'll see.

@DecorumManager And no one in the US was ever truly "locked down" at all. Yes, some businesses had to close or modify in order to operate, but we were free to come & go & roam around as we pleased. Often it was just for a walk but I don't think there was ever 1 day I didn't go outside.

💡Ask someone if they’ve ever smelled cigarette smoke outside, and not known where it came from. Then ask if they found the source? if they did, was it usually farther than 6 feet away? Ponder it. Smoking 🚬 exhaled aerosols are akin to respiratory exhaled aerosols. #COVID19
