    For people who think you are sometimes negative about this virus situation, this posting shows that you are just looking at it from your perspective as to how you will act, but also pointing out that those at higher risk should be taking great care. No one can disagree with that attitude.

    Went to Thalatta Resort for lunch today. The restaurant was full - every seat at every table. The pool was also full. No social distancing whatsoever.

    Later, tried to find somewhere to have a swim. Ocean 24 - you could see it was completely crowded without even going in. Pigeon Resort - likewise. Hundreds of people, no distancing, no masks. And don't get me started on Forest Camp.

    Weren't there supposed to be some rules about capacity in force at the moment? You know, like, restaurants can only fill half the tables or something?

    I guess this is what happens when owners get greedy for profit at the expense of their customers' safety, and there's no enforcement.

    I know there was a brownout so everyone wanted to cool off, but when did the population get so cavalier with their own health and safety? Do they actually want to catch COVID?

    Maybe. How many were already terminally ill before contracting COVID? How many were in a nursing home unable to even feed themselves or get to the bathroom on their own due to advanced Alzheimer's or dementia? We just don't know but I suspect the number is quite high. Did they "deserve" to die a few weeks/months early? Of course not, but should we burn the world and cause more pain and suffering for healthy people that still have their entire lives ahead of them? I say no.

    4 since the beginning. Less than 140 total cases in the entire Province. Might describe the "I Don't Care", especially since almost all of them have been imported, LSIs and OFWs.
