They're literally cancelling surgeries at children's hospitals. But wearing a mask or avoiding unnecessary gatherings right now is too much to ask of grown-ups.
When people go through terribly hard life experiences, other people often say, “I honestly don’t know how you did it, I couldn’t cope with that”.

BREAKING; Sept 20 Hearing from educators and parents whose classes and staff are getting sick in record numbers and saying "We've never had a start so bad in terms of absences" Maybe if they all release a video singing "Bohemian Rhapsody" this will get noticed?
Mask wearing is literally the same type of thing as refrigerators, sunscreen, bug spray, spaying your pets, cancer screening, seatbelts.
NONE of those things work perfectly all the time. But ALL of them help reduce harms some of the time.
Harm reduction is the goal.
