    The fact that Indian men are on “marriage strike” against marital rape laws tells us one basic thing about our society, men want unlimited access to women’s bodies. Don’t tell me these laws will be misused. Just know that if you are on strike it’s best you don’t get married.

    So the reason not to say "screw it, let's just unmask and go back to normal" right now is to try to....flatten the curve. I know that's an expression from way back when, but it applies. We need to slow down infections to keep hospitals from collapsing. 6/n
