Folks are selective at each point:
People go out within indoor settings and remove masks. "Oh, I have to eat" or "Oh, I'm eating during this flight". Indoor restaurants and bars are hotspots. Folks do not understand that they cannot remove the mask while eating or drinking!! So, restaurants and bars are now closing.
Yes, humans are social beings. But, gatherings are taking place as if there is no respiratory pandemic! Parties, celebrations and such have never stopped. In most instances, folks are not wearing masks. Now, we are approaching Thanksgiving. Infection rates are already soaring. Things look bad. The outlook is not good.
I suggest, just focus on the here and now.
- Stay low. Protect your bubble.
- For Thanksgiving, I plan to cook as usual. BUT, no company. I will drop off and have my family members pick up meal trays. I'm a good cook. I enjoy cooking.
- Be mindful of meals and food intake. Eat soups and take daily vitamin.
- Go slow on the wine.
- No travel.
- Do more phone chat with friends,
- Plan on taking the flu vaccine.
- Figure out how to burn calories and lose weight.
This year has been brutal. But, the vaccine is on the way and we have to get ready to go back in public. YIKES! LBVS. We can do this!!! So, focus on the here and now!
