aren't quite as tight but close to. No visitors, including family.

We go pick up groceries because we're in the country and, where possible, order everything else on line for delivery or do without. Delivery of prepared foods not available out here. (A pneumonia vaccination did require breaking isolation.) The groceries are ordered on line and put in the back of our car by a masked store associate who never comes close to us, also in masks. We have plenty of outdoors room and do chat from a goodly distance with neighbors.

The situation's truly crazy and dreadful here for sure, but many millions who can, and that includes a whole lot of retired and otherwise able people, are in self lockdown. The real thing, many millions more would but cannot do.
