I've also been on lots of rigs lately and stayed in a few hotels and work camps. I can say with all certainty that things aren't back to normal there either.

It seems like the precautions might be working. If not, it won't hurt.

Also when it comes to comorbidity. I just tried and I can't think of many people I know over 40 who don't have asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure, COPD, obesity etc. some have multiple problems in that list so I'm not putting much faith in the numbers being as off as some are claiming.
The unemployment rate is killing more people then Covid. You also have sick patients missing important specialist appointments. Be interesting to see how many people died because they weren’t able to get diagnosed rapidly after this is all done. So yes the precautions do hurt things. I would say they’re hurting things mightily looking around my neighborhood.
