Infection = infectious contact x time

In other words, an infection that makes someone ill is a particular viral load, which is usually obtained with sustained contact over some period of time, not by a random passing on the street contact. And sooner or later those staying in must go out, for necessities, on occasion.

So where is sustained contact over time occurring most - with the stay at homes.

In NYC a survey of folk hospitalized for the virus found 2/3 were NOT from the “essential” workers who continued to go to work every day, continued their prior level of public contact, continued commuting on the mass transit system; no, that 2/3 was from the people who had been staying home.

If you are hill, stay home, if not GET OUT, GO OUT.
