This guy is from the adjacent Ohio county just west of me. The graphic shows that he checked in at Put-In-Bay in June, which is a tourist island community best known for its drinking and party atmosphere - lots of non-social-distancing activities under normal non-pandemic circumstances. Think of it as a miniature version of the many east coast spring break locales. There has been a recent COVID outbreak in that area due to people who just don't give a *bleep* about being smart and safe and throw caution to the wind. This guy was 37 years old - don't know if he had any pre-existing compromising health conditions, but he has become the poster child for the idea that youth (to me 37 still qualifies as young) does not equal immunity from this virus.

Yes, he was foolish to have gone to a crowded resort area during this pandemic, especially with not wearing a mask, but I wouldn't wish this horrible virus on anybody. Though it won't do him any good now, hopefully this will be a warning to those who are following in his footsteps. i'm just ready for this to be over, but it looks like it's not over by a long shot right now.  :peace: :heart:

That seems to be the bottom line, especially if one is going to be in a crowd or out and about and not able to do  required social distancing;everyone at this point need to make their personal choice  to mask it or casket!

It is unfortunate but we all need to be cautious. It means putting aside some things we use to do at least for the time being.

Darwin's Survival of the Fittest.. his body, his choice -- he chose poorly.

I don't see why people don't just wear a mask, better to be safe than sorry.

Because wearing a mask will not keep you safe from anything. I don't see why people can't just back the flip off and live their life and let everybody else live theirs. If you are so sure that mask will keep you safe then wear it and be loud and proud. Don't worry about the ones who choose not to wear a mask.  The CDC and the state health departments as well as WHO have ALL said that the mask will not prevent you from getting sick. It does not really do anything but make the wearer feel better. So wear your mask and leave the rest of the world alone.

I live in senior apartment complex.  The governor made it mandatory to wear masks outside your house so our manager made it mandatory that we wear masks outside our apartment that includes hallways, laundry room. mail room and parking lot.  These supposed seniors do not like the rule and refuse to wear masks.  They are acting like 5 year olds.

People that don't social distancing will get COVID 19. Large crowds, parties & etc. New cases in Florida is up. Also California is up especial Los Angeles County & San Fransico area!

I live near Los Angeles County - Thousand Oaks!

Proverbs 9:10
King James Version
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.


The preaching of Gods kingdom has stopped in places were the virus is.The meetings,conventions etc are all online.Prov 9:10 says a lot who Jehovah is and many run to HIM for protection and instruction.

to me at the very least wearing a mask is common courtesy for everyone around you.
the mask is a small way to protect others and to help stop the spread of the virus.
i am not a fan of states mandating things like masks however, right now there are loads of people who don't care or realize that everyone is a potential carrier of the virus and not wearing a masks spreads the virus!
Hope everyone stays safe. :rainbow: :peace: :wave:
Be grateful for what you have and you will receive more than you ever expected

If you believe it you can achieve it.

Small Consistent Steps Lead to Great Rewards
