      I’m looking at this picture and all I see is people with way more than six feet between them in a sunny and well-ventilated area. I wish they had masks on, but what’s else is the problem? Given how large beaches are, is there a safer way to go outdoors? I don’t get beach outrage. https://twitter.com/travisakers/status/1251260796476305409 …

      Way more, yes. Look! Groups of people are already groups of people, they are also together indoors. We should not have concert situations and I'd recommend masks but that's a low risk pic. Also, you realize six feet indoors is a much much much higher risk than six foot outdoors?

      It's amazing that you look at a pic and do not evalute the "before"s and "after"s that are bound to come hand in hand with it. Any gathering means more travel, more socialization. Plus, cough and sneeze eject droplets to not 6 but 18 feet away, open air can not protect you from >

      > whatever risk any random person by your side pose by even merely talking, much less sneezing, AND people are getting into water altogether! It doesn't matter one bit wheter it is "not a pool, but open water", they are practically sharing the very same *pool* of contamination >
