You bible belt Americans are way too soft, I bet you'd vote for a social conformist like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez! That fool woman didn't know the difference between cash and a tax write-off.......
You staying safe over there? W'eve had one new case of Wuhan virus, first in nearly a week in Queensland, other states are dealing with the odd cluster or are nearly at zero. Almost all are returning immigrants from India or China, take a handful of Aspirin and lie about your contacts before you board the plane.... Other than that most of our cases were folks (retirees mostly) returning from holiday cruises on the plague ships, they in turn visited their family and passed the virus on. We followed DJT and went into a lock-down of sorts (Nowhere as harsh as the US one, but we have better state governments (some still socialist just not as stupid).) Schools closed, pubs and clubs closed (Victoria closed gun shops(?) as their advisers(?) warned of an impending spike in domestic violence which never eventuated) social gatherings were limited to just immediate family, testing was available but not mandatory.
Essential services remained fully staffed but their children were sent to school to be nursemaided, education went on line, my wifes school issues 'laptops' to all students and monitors their attendance (logins) and found that there was a better attendance rate than normal. Daughter who is a social worker (child protection) said that domestic violence took a big drop, drug use took a nosedive as police stopped cars on the road to ask what business they had to be out and about, shopping for essentials ok, visiting doctor or dentist ok, visiting or dropping off drugs "come with us". At first we had a 10k from home limit (shopping) then a 50k from home limit, I cycle for exercise so those were often broken quite often.... Now we have a 250k limit and school holidays fast approaching, interstate travel is closed and you need a permit to cross the border but we (family) should be able to travel out to Stanthorpe and day trip from there to visit the wineries if open and the gold fossicking areas but it will be the start of winter and nights will see a -5c average temperature.... A tad cold for the tent.....
This is a good You-tube channel to watch, fossicking for gold and a bit of history around my familys old stomping ground.
