Here in the Texas Panhandle the cases continue to increase. We have several meat packing plants that are a magnet for the virus. Currently the death rate is 1.3% but climbing. Now that the state has partially opened for business I see a large number of people going about life as though nothing has happened. Few masks, less social distancing, and larger groups together. IMO the infection rate is going to increase rapidly now. On the flip side we must reopen the economy ASAP or will find ourselves in a financial hole we can never climb out of. Damned if you do, damned if you dont!
I know this, at my age of 78 and with mild heart disease we are going to continue with our limited self quarantining. Let the youngsters build the herd immunity.....at their own peril but respect our need to avoid contact.
