It's not business as usual

Take a good long look at the graph above.  I am so appalled when I hear of instances of my fellow human beings that just don't understand this graph.  Over and over again I'm hearing of gatherings of people for selfish reasons.  Do you not understand that it's not just about you?  It affects all of us.  I know it's hard to stay home and not be with the people you care about.  "Stay home" is for your safety and mine.  The President's guidelines say no groups larger then 10.  I say no groups period.  How do you know if just one person in your group is a carrier?  Are you really willing to take a chance on becoming infected?  Those of you that think it's OK to get together with friends are in the dark blue curve, the rest of us who are staying home are in the striped curve.  Maybe you think you won't be that one out of ten that infects someone else.  How do you know for sure?  Are you willing to jeopardize your family and friends just so you can get out of the house?  How are you going to feel if because you were lonely and decided to visit Grandma, and you unknowingly are a carrier of the virus and now Grandma gets sick and dies?  Think about that, let it sink in, was it worth the visit?  Maybe you think getting together outside and staying 6 feet apart is OK, what if that's not true.  There is so much we don't know about how this Virus is transmitted.  The rules keep changing everyday.  I'm not being a Nervous Nellie, I've seen first hand how people who were healthy and relatively young have been fine one day and then suddenly got sick and within a week to 10 days died.  They're dead, they're not coming back.  Please at least consider what I've said, we are in a war and the only way to win is to fight with the tools that we have.  Mitigation   if you don't know what that means, look it up.
