This is terrible on so many levels. I’m okay with social distancing, but many stores aren’t making it easy for people to purchase necessary items. People need Clorox and toilet tissue, but these items are out of stock online and only available in stores. In most cases, the stores are usually sold out therefore people are making a blank trip to the store for nothing. Items should be available to purchase online because that promotes social distancing. HEB is doing a great job, so major thanks to them for helping the elderly. We can’t find hand sanitizer anywhere because Amazon is only selling to hospitals or government agencies. The United States should move as a whole because we are in this together. They need to help people get their food and medicine and then enforce a Stay At Home Order. Doesn’t matter if this is the United States of America. We need to get serious and do what is best for the people. Too many options and people shouldn’t have options at this point.
Thank you for reporting the number of recovered. A touch of optimism is much needed.
