Jesus. What a way to NOT set a damned example. It's already hard enough to get people to acknowledge that this thing is serious enough that we need to make the sacrifices to keep it under control until we can get appropriate inoculations.
I'm looking at what we're doing here in Colorado, USA, and while it's been tough, it's been manageable, although even here some people are trying to get the legal power to keep this thing clamped down dissolved so that they can save their businesses, health of others be damned (the numbers started dropping after the bars were told to close again and last call made 10pm, so I'm thinking Polis made the right damned call). I'm less and less likely to be sympathetic as they fight harder to avoid doing the sacrifices and practically ensuring we're going to have to lock down completely again, especially when the evidence is coming in via the numbers that their business model as they're running it actually isn't conducive to keeping this in check and things at least stable where they're at right now.
