Answer: you humans are petty, and during a situation where you feel a complete lack of control, many of you, especially those with power (however little) will demonstrate very controlling behaviors to compensate.

It is easier to close off federal property than it is to create exceptions. The virus spreads fast, therefore we have to react fast. Anyway, social distancing does work. Look at Ohio, which has been ahead of the curve in terms of tackling covid-19. The infections (per million) are the lowest of any state. You can see this in history as well, just do some research on the Spanish flu. You'll find that those regions which implemented social distancing had the lowest amount of deaths and infection.

There’s that, but then there’s also the fact that you can’t go to other residences. I live in Michigan and some people have cottages up north. They can’t go to their houses [i]in the middle of the woods[/i], or they could get arrested.

Dust Masks also confuse me. I don't think thats gonna stop any airborne pathogen.

because the collective brain power of California is average to poor at best.

When i go to store to buy my "essentials" and folks make a direct attempt to get out of others way.. Im like.. This is kinda nice. Then i see online that i may not be able to purchase a scrabble game or a garden hose and im like.. This is not so nice... But i will always be able to buy scratch off lottery tickets... Yes?🤔 Welp, some folks wanted a state run governance where we were told what we may have, do and breathe... Now i suppose is the time to rejoice. This is how i would imagine its gonna be. Welfare checks for all... Again, scratch offs are a available way to spend your "stimulus" checks... And its, for the time being legal, cuz u know... "Your helping to send a kid to college.." Say what?

Except for it’s working.

You are absolutely correct. It does not make any sense. Also note the contradiction of "social distancing." There is nothing social about distancing yourself from others. Then there are also the promotional hashtags like, "alone together." There is no togetherness in being alone. It's a clever play on semantics. I've been saying this SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic is being exaggerated to an extreme degree for months now. A lot of people are finally noticing this is true. Hospitals reported as overencombered with SARS-CoV-2 patients are found to be empty. Tents assembled for testing and diagnosis are also found empty and barren of equipment. Recycled hospital video of wards treating SARS-COV-2 patients broadcast in different countries. There's a lot of inconsistencies. There is definitely more to what is going on than a viral infection. It's very serious. I'm sure we are not in any danger. We will just have to see what happens over the next couple weeks.

Entertainment vs necessity. You don’t NEED to be in the ocean, therefore you’re unnecessarily putting others at risk. You NEED to acquire food to survive, so therefore it’s ok to go to the market.
