None of this is about preventing disease. If it were, there would be nothing but outdoors events right now: Outdoor theatres, outdoor museums, outdoor cinema, outdoor education. All to forestall indoors interactions. Think how fantastic that would be actually.

I would love classes outside, even in winter. Worth some discomfort.

kids should be outside as much as possible, it would be great for them regardless of weather.
