I'd rather be forced to stay at home than end up in a hospital with a tube down my throat, though. We're hearing more and more that it's NOT just those with underlying health conditions that get complications. Young, healthy peole are ending up in intensive care as well.
Yes I'd hate to not be able to go for a walk anymore but if that's the price I have to pay for also not being forced to travel in the virus incubator that is public transport.... doesn't seem too bad of a trade off.
I'm seeing it very much as protection. I'm worried about my parents, who are talking about "what's not allowed anymore ". Especially my dad - and he's over 70 and has diabetes, he's high risk. He *could* order groceries online but he's like "I'm still allowed to go to the supermarket, aren't I?" Too damn stubborn.
