As I said, it’s unrealistic for people to just sit inside their house.
And it includes social gatherings as well. How many weddings have been superspreader events? There was a large increase in the northern plains after Sturgis. And that Biogen conference that kicked things off in Boston may be responsible for over 300,000 infections.

Also- for those choosing to do what is "best for me"- does that include all of the sport-playing youth (that you don't know), whom we know are so vigilant about mitigation (ha-ha) , who will be at those large gatherings at home?
We know being young right now isn't what it should be- but putting their families at risk isn't a choice you should be making for them.
Prevailing influence, being what it is, will guide them.
