MD/DC/VA Golfers - Twelve Monkeys Mental Divergence

I was internally screaming last week when my wife and I walked along the water. Most people were somewhat good about it, but of all people to ignore distancing, the runners were the worst. I don't need peoples' hot sweaty breath on my shoulder as they pass by at a 1 foot range.

Sidewalks are narrow as is, I think Patterson Park is pretty much the last place to be able to spread out.

Ive been running a lot just to get outside. I’m mostly avoiding the running path and sticking to quiet side streets. I’m not too concerned about being within 6 feet for a second while passing someone in the opposite direction, but still trying to avoid it if possible. I do wonder if there’s some real knowledge or etiquette that applies to that. Some people are definitely veering off the path so they don’t get too close, while most seem to be okay passing normally.

Ya'll are crazy. I have all of the desire to play all of the golf and wish I could play 36 a day right now.

What he said.

I had to go into the grocery store and WalMart yesterday and going into WalMart...you might as well just inject yourself with Covid when you walk in the door. Never again.

FWIW when someone tells me they have a 118 yard flag in their backyard my jelly meter goes insta-max.

Was on a call this morning expecting VA to become the same. They are telling us to carry our two work IDs plus email justification just in case they decide to pull anyone over.

I would classify this as very unlikely but better safe than sorry - in addition to the fact I live less than 4 miles from the office. I dont have a choice really, on the weeks our team is on rotation, we need to be there.

I'm no virologist but how does anyone know how they got the disease down to that level of detail.?

They touched the same handles, the same buttons. They both could have got it from someone else. It takes like 2 weeks to show up and that person must have had tons of contact with tons of people over that time frame. they both could have got it from the same clerk at the liquor store.

Like Domes said, if you can get it walking by someone on a sidewalk, we're all gonna get it unless you go full hermit.

I'm not crossing into the street when passing dog walkers. Most of them aren't either.

This order is more restrictive than I expected. News reports are terrible at accurately conveying this sort of thing. This is the only copy I've been able to find: https://www.baltimoresun.com/coronavirus/bs-md-stay-at-home-document-20200330-54bdwlwzgbeanly54akhuzsyf4-htmlstory.html

I know all courses were already closed, but the last order was sort of vague as to whether they had to. This one specifically closes all public and private courses.

As far as shopping, it says you can only leave your home to buy necessary supplies. That's significant. Before, I could go to home depot just to get out of the house. Or to buy fertilizer. Or whatever. I think this actually makes that illegal. If my toilet breaks, I can still go there to buy stuff to fix it, but its seems like you've got to have some essential sort of justification.

There are other things you can leave for, like essential work (but just to drive home to work and back), exercise (but not in groups of 10, and while respecting social distancing, etc), caring for a family member, etc. But its pretty restrictive.

The one person that got sick had worked at home for 3 weeks and went into the office to get work when it was closed. I do agree it is possible to have gotten it from touching doors or elevator buttons or what have you. I was just pointing out the coincidence that the person got covid19 when the other person in the elevator had also tested positive for it.

Does the VA order specifically call out golf courses?

No. but the governor was asked in his press conferences specifically about golf and he answered you can still play golf as long you avoid gatherings of 10 or more. Clubhouses must be closed.

Obviously, the issue here is enforcement. Next to impossible for states to enforce these orders, which leaves us in the same boat as relying on citizens' better judgement.

On a more positive note, sitting inside and doing nothing has been pretty inexpensive so far

 

Has it really?
