I'm starting to like walmart pickup more and more. Delivery can come at a cost with instacart and although that was nice I rather just be at the car so that way I can pick up anything missing.

back to covid though reading more into Pfizer...I'm fully confident on what they make being real. But....

The US and western world is going to get this first. If you look at the max of what they have of 2020 and 2021 that's about 17% of the worlds population. Other companies need to step up because this will still take years in the developing world. Anything that is immigrant based will be hurting for years so urban areas like Boston will not do as well. We have to bring it to them, not the other way around.

Yes, I feel much safer not being surrounded by racists carrying weapons of mass killing as an intimidation threat.

I'm sorry if you like that kind of environment. I view it as a threat if someone is open carrying a weapon, where obvious self defense that requires that kind of weapon is not required.

Can I be the contrarian here? I've been a huge believer is erring on the side of safety...but how in heck can 20 seconds of exposure, from masked people passing by one another, increase the risk? So what if people walk down both ways, no one is lingering in the aisles.

I agree with msRB311: it's important to pay attention to the rules.

Stop and Shop, Star Market, Shaws, Market Basket, etc. were not designed to have one way aisles. You need a design similar to Heartland (the warehouse cousin of Purity Supreme for all you old time Bay Staters who remember) or IKEA as a more recent example where to go back the other direction is an absolute hassle. Then everyone is going to go one way.

If you've ever been to Stew Leonard's (CT/NY), that's exactly how they're designed also.

Im no scientist. I havent seen all the data.

I havent seen inside a school either. Im assuming the desks are far from each other, everyones wearing a mask, plastic barriers everywhere. People kind of scared of things.

With all that in palce, how can there be an increased spread from that? Couldnt it be related to grocery stores, other stores, etc...?
