Although I did not do it in my county I went over to the next county that is more ummmm conservative and not as judgy and no one said anything to me.
Yes, sadly hindsight showed keeping older, frail folks cooped up with the overworked, short-staffed workers who deal intimately with them in the petri dish of a closed nursing home and then admitting still more post-acute Covid 19 patients from hospitals to those same nursing homes, their workers then going out and about to shop,etc., then home to families, was about the most dangerous thing leaders could have done to them. Far too many died.
