You can’t lock down the healthy in America for a year to protect the weak. Those in fear think this is going to end soon but it isn’t. Instead, people need to decide how to live their lives in our new, fundamentally unsafe pandemic society.

One of my acquaintances, hasn’t paid rent last month, and frequents food banks now. The promised relief checks have yet to arrive too.
The job market post pandemic looks like it will be pretty rough, so the longer this goes on without relief the more debt people will incur.
I am personally not against continuing the lockdown, even though it’s deeply emotionally draining, but the government needs to consistently provide money for people to live, or else simple desperation is going to become a wide spread problem.
