      Cramming them indoors isn't better. We need people's cooperation. Authorities should consult with experts who understand how people work and the role of sunshine and ventilation in viral infection spread. Leaving people with no options makes things worse. https://twitter.com/FierceRobert/status/1246784829397426178 …

      This won't be just two weeks. Maybe we should start having that conversation honestly, too. If authorities are telling you in your country that we're indoors for two weeks and that's it, they are not telling you the truth. We may have a year ahead.https://twitter.com/mskathleenquinn/status/1246786836833472512 …

      2/with staying at home. People are also needlessly risking lives of police, plainly must patrol because too many want to cut slack for themselves. It is 2 weeks that you need to stay at home to save your hospitals. Is that REALLY such a hardship to complain about?

      zeynep tufekci Retweeted Pinboard

      Yes! Overzealous, unscientific and unsustainable rules will make cooperation less likely. Less sun and outdoors will make people's immune systems weaker. It's much harder for viruses to infect people in sunny, outdoor places compared to cramped indoors.https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/1246788025515794435 …

      The part I'm especially worried about is when daily infection and death rates are rapidly declining, but people will still be asked to maintain strict social distancing measures (in early summer!). It will take a lot of trust and goodwill to make that happen

      Congregation and playdates: we have to convince people! Driving those indoors makes infections spread more, and we will all be locked down longer. I DO wish they didn't but we can only convince, not hide it from our view. Enforce distance/masks outdoors. https://twitter.com/LuciaParamita/status/1246788368853159936 …

      Of course. Indoors is very conducive to infections spreading. We must provide least risk places for people to get fresh air. Us not seeing them congregate doesn't mean they won't just do it indoors. We need cooperation, not feel-good top-down authority. https://twitter.com/RealDemVoter1/status/1246789342795890688 …

      Yeah, the pictures I saw were perfectly fine distancing, mostly small family groups. If that's what they shut down, they just made sure infections will go up as there will be less immunity without sun and outdoors and groups gathering indoors.https://twitter.com/KatyKiernan/status/1246790150061019136 …

      Thing is, all the news stories have photos supposedly illustrating the problem, but actually showing most people distancing quite well. There are some groups, but they mostly seem to be family groups who are probably living together.

      Find the part I said anything wrong about the infectiousness part. (It's all correct and very very basic). But, it's the sociology of the situation I'm talking about. Authorities are going to drive groups indoors—out-of-sight but more prone to infections.https://twitter.com/DarrenSugg1/status/1246792209233518592 …

      Okay, let's try this: You know what happened when people who don't understand people put everyone in open offices thinking it would encourage interaction? Everyone put headphones on and there was *less* interaction. You gotta understand people and you gotta understand infections.

      Okay, apparently lots of people don't know this but... yes: viruses (like many other microorganisms) don't survive as well under the sun compared to less/no sun. We're not talking about UV-C (medical sterilization equipment). For a group, outside is much less risk than indoors.

      That's not how people work. WE HAVE TO CONVINCE THEM. Plus, we may be in this for a year. That means we need to consider mental health and immunity. If we close all parks rather than have sane rules, they will gather in cramped petri-dishes aka apartments.https://twitter.com/DeweyTheGooner/status/1246796940458823681 …

      If two groups from sperate households meet up outside and get told to go home they will go back to their separate households. Not all go indoors together. You might be trying to help with mental health but all you're doing is giving fuel to people who want to do the wrong thing

      The problem with over zealous policing is it erodes trust in public authorities. The interactions are no longer about a community looking out for each other, but about “not getting caught” and the underlying intent is lost. Any teacher/parent knows this cycle.

          Yes and when the police and councils shame people who are, in fact, physical distancing, they come off as petty jobsworths instead of the community support they can be. It means the police lose credibility and people ignore their advice.
