Hello
@Wally & Anyone Interested!
I live in one of the SIX counties that make up the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Today I received a call from my county's public health office, as well as a text message, informing me that I need to shelter in place from Midnight until April 7th.
Luckily I had already read about this shelter-in-place order in the paper this morning, or I probably would have been a bit freaked out by the call and text message. ;-)
Even though I am already housebound due to ME/CFS, this shelter-in-place order will cause me, and my family, some hardships, however ...
**This is the right thing to do, for the greater good.**
I only wish it were happening across the ENTIRE United States, as suggested by Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of Allergy and Infectious Disease, at the National Institute of Health.
These are difficult times, and, in my humble opinion, the majority of Americans are not willing to sacrifice their own selfish needs or desires for the greater good.
I am glad this official shelter-in-place order was rolled out today to improve the careless behaviors of those self-centered individuals who had ZERO interest in the well-being of those with medical conditions and/or those over 65. It's as if, in their minds, we are expendable. (This all makes me so deeply sad.)
As mentioned above, I wish the Federal Government would roll out a 14 to 21 day shelter-in-place order across the entirety of the United States.
I wish everyone good physical and mental health during these uncertain times!
