Social Question

After this pandemic is long over do you think you will still practice some form of social distancing?

Asked by SQUEEKY2 (23425points) April 1st, 2020

Just to be on the safe side?
I wonder if Bars, movie houses, and concerts will ever be the same?

I’ll make a point of social distancing from people who don’t believe in vaccines and science.

Seriously. A year from now, we will be back to our old habits and this will be a distant and happily forgotten episode.

No. I will however still wash my hands properly from now on. 20 seconds and full wash, all fingers and wrists.

I might hug a little less.

A lady on the elevator told me she couldn’t wait til this was all over so she could hug everyone she saw. I stepped away from her. She was getting a bit giddy.

Well, no more than I already do (er… did before… there’s not much difference for me), being someone who mainly works at home, and goes out to shop and walk/hike.

I’ve ordered our butler to carry out all essential duties from afar.
He just emailed me instructions on how to use a kettle.

Since China is having a second wave, I think I will continue social distancing for awhile. Who knew hugs were a luxury.

A China second wave?
That’s news to me.
Can you fill me in a bit?

SQUEEKY2's avatar

Yeah, @KNOWITALL could you post a link to that news?
I have heard there will be a second wave coming for everyone makes sense that china is getting theirs first.

Thank you, @KNOWITALL.

Well, “having a second wave” is putting it a bit bluntly.
What I read in all three articles is that there are new cases of people with Covid-19, but no mention of numbers, or waves.
The three articles are also all speaking of authorities that fear a new wave.
Also, in one of the articles it is written that “On Wednesday, the National Health Commission reported 36 new infections — all but one imported cases.”

@rebbel Yes, it’s a waiting game at this point.

I agree on that.
