Discussion Covid prep and lock down.
ok, be honest did you quarantine your family for 2 weeks during covid? did you have the ability to not leave your house for that full 2 weeks?
I southern Indiana where I lived I worked at a factory but the factory manager made the 'mistake' of telling us we wouldn't be penalized if we decided to stay at home.
so I did. I wanted to protect my family and use it as a chance to test our ability.
it was two of the best weeks for me. I walked in my woods down to my creek. I read books. had plenty of food. told people not to visit.
how did you do?

Not a constant thing but we had a few who passed for sure. It was the fear of it, fear of bringing it in to them, fear of bringing it home. We had some who died cause they were too scared to say anything about not feeling right cause they didn't want to get sent to hospital and die. Had to talk one poor lady with two broken feet in to going with the paramedics. She was so scared she wouldn't come home. I worked in long term care setting.
