Read a Zoo tiger got infected with CoronaVirus. If this virus is moving among species, should we be very concerned about this this potentially passing to dogs and cats? I often see people walking 6ft apart, but NOT their dogs (from other dogs).

They have nothing to do w each other. In fact, the city govt that banned plastic straws is probably also the one that has proactively acted to save among the most lives compared to other US metros. Plastic straw straw man.

The reason we’re in this situation is one party doesn’t believe in govt and has hollowed it out over the last 40 years to the extent that it isn’t able to do anything, leaving states to fend for themselves and private contractors to absorb more functions in a corrupt, opaque way.
