Believe it or not I'm kinda ambivalent about this. It sure looks like the West Coast has been in the throes of Covid Lite™ which, hey, if it imparts any immunity at all, kicks the crap out of Rockstar Games Grand Theft Auto CovidNY®.

I don't think anybody really has a handle on the epidemiology here, especially some lunkheads out in Walla Walla. I do not wish to impart public health decisions on to crowds looking for beer. And it looks like the crowds were reminded what a bad idea it was. But I can twist my head into understanding how to think that might be a good idea.

Unlike the people in my Facebook feed who go from zero to boxcar in seven words.

Yeah I could see this being a acceptable idea as well. It’s pretty bave to go out and do it but on the other hand if everyone quarantined for 14 days after I see no problem with it. Clearly we’re coming off quarantine and there is sufficient hospital capacity at the moment, no guarantee of vaccines, if someone wants to take control of this and intentionally expose themselves I think it’s acceptable provided they self isolate after, hell if doctors and nurses were doing this I think they are heroes to put themselves at risk now so they can be available to serve when needed most.
