Stay home. Two small words. No hidden meaning. Just stay home. So why in the hell are people not understanding it? Is it really too much for people to comprehend?
Ok, ok, sometimes we are given instructions that are hard to follow. Have you made anything from IKEA? Yeah it isn't always plain and simple. But these are. Do not leave your house. Don't visit your grandma. No playdates. Dinner parties are canceled. Stay home.
Absolutely go to the pharmacy to get your medication. Maybe call them first and see if they deliver. They might not have before but desperate times mean desperate measures. Any other time of the year you'd be happy not to have to go out and get them. Enjoy it now if it's available. Bonus...it's probably free!
Food is the biggie. We all worry about it, especially now. But just like the pharmacy, there are many ways to get supplies and never leave your couch. Neighbors, delivery services, online ordering with contact-free curbside delivery. All viable options. But if you believe only you can buy your groceries go early in the morning or late in the evening. Bring some Lysol wipes. Get only what you need and stay 6 feet away from other shoppers. Speed counts. And very importantly...be nice to the workers. Say thank you. Ask if they are well. Be patient and polite. Without them, we would all be in big trouble.
We all need to stop this virus. Every single one of us has a part to play. And for the vast majority of us, it is just to stay home. Remember one month ago we were making every excuse in the book to do just that!
