Grocery store today: 100 percent masks. Every single person. Every cashier.
I used to be the only one in February/early March. It was weird. No longer.
Next up, we need to get the store clerks N95s as shortages allow. They are indoors all day; they are frontline workers.

I just don't know how some centralized isolation would work in the US. We have a lot of single parents and single pet owners. It would be difficult. "sensible isolation" is very easy to say but very difficult to put into practice.

We also have a large number of people who apparently do not have the sense to quarantine themselves if they are asymptomatic. Short of constant direct surveillance, how do you stop them walking their dog a few times a day? Phone app won't work. Just leave the phone at home.

Home transmission is key- & to other comments below, most relevant in larger households, where presumably you can isolate the sick person away from home (w/ others there to help care for kids etc). I think we need both better central isolation + scaling of high filtrate masks

Agree. My concern is also that the high filtrate masks do come with real challenges in use and I'd love to see a pilot somewhere! Also see face shields as an option for source control, article by
@eliowa. It has advantages/something to consider hopefully. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2765525 … - Show replies
