I try to minimize risk.

A year ago I fought with my siblings to keep our elderly mother at her home. They wanted to put her in a retirement home. She is still healthy and at home.

My wife and I are working from home. Kids are schooling from home.

None of us have been in a store or far outside our property in a month.

By no means are we guaranteed not to get infected, but we are lowering our risk.

I’m all about keeping elderly in their homes. Even if they need visiting home nurses.

I’ve been home now almost 6 weeks,just myself, but know well how to occupy the time and have access to outdoors. But I am at risk having had a surgical proceedure a few months ago and so being careful... in fact checkup was rescheduled because of this virus.

So I do understand lowering ones risk. But I also undersstand people who are without an income ,who cannot work from home, protesting to get back to work. And let them as well determine their own risk by doing so.
