<p>... <sorry> ... keeping strong "cells" or "cliques" or
"islands" with very limited out-group contact is more important
than *everyone* keeping 6' distance, washing their hands, covering
their face, etc. I have several "cliques" in my social circle
which I have very limited in-person contact, and each one has a
very different level of in-group-hygiene. At least one is a very
"leaky" cell... with one member who simply doesn't take the whole
thing seriously. I avoid direct contact with her and her space,
but I do have very infrequent (once a week or less) contact (with
6' distance for short periods without much exchange of objects)
with her 80+ year old husband who I know to be *much* more careful
and perhaps much more likely to become symptomatic more quickly if
*she* does bring him some Corona? <br>
