MA just announced a ban on all gatherings over 25 people. Restaurants are all now take-out only. Health clubs closed. All shows and schools canceled. Etc.. Currently this is through April 7th.
I hope the government is also planning to pay people’s rent, mortgage, electric, water, groceries, credit card interest, etc.
A friend of mine runs a small local restaurant. Not sure how he will pay rent. All of his servers are now temporarily unemployed and have no way to buy food or pay rent.
Another friend of mine is a personal trainer. Not sure how he will buy groceries next week.
The vast majority of the people most directly impacted by all this are essentially at zero risk of dying from COVID. And on April 7th it’s not like COVID will cease to exist...
“Locking everything down” is an incredibly damaging and nonsensical action for the vast majority of the population.
