    That said, you couldn't pay me to get on a plane right now!

    My sister in law just flew in yesterday and is staying at my house.  So we might as well have been on that plane.  Ughhh.

    Friend of mine lives in Colorado and is very smug about all that is happening with the rest of the US.

    "Nothing going on here, nothing to worry about folks!" is her response and constant posts.  I hope that she and all that rally w her have the strength to endure it when it reaches them.

    Ive been taking vitamin  d3 for a week . There is evidence  its helpful  in the immune system against respiratory infections. Worth trying. https://youtu.be/W5yVGmfivAk
    I don't have any D3, but I've had the top down for some sunshine in the Spyder, cranking the two new PJ songs. The music comes out the Bose speakers in the car seat. Isn't that cool? I'll have to see if D3 is part of the vitamin D we get from the sun because I'm limiting supermarket outings. 

    Stay hopeful!

    Edits: Oops, just realized OP here said they are thinking about life w/o a car. Hope that wasn't you?? If so, I apologize for the insensitivity.

    Not sure how I feel about this right now. I thought about heading down to Florida for a little while. My thought process is the planes are not crowded and they are cleaner than ever. I live in NY and own a retail store. I feel like I’m at a higher risk at my store, in the gym or even just grocery shopping than on a 3 hour flight to Florida.

    Do you make it or purchase it (Vitamin Shoppe for example)?  Sorry if it's a dumb question.

    Not a dumb question. You purchase it. Read about it. It’s worked wonders for me over the past two years.

    Are you doing that?

    I know this is overboard, but I had bought googles too, were I to take a flight. I saw that he can adjust the airflow vent to aim it forwards to avoid potential small droplets. I figured it would also help the kid keep hands off of face.

    'There are two scandals in this event thus far: The first is the disbanding of the White House pandemic office and the testing issue.  Here is an excellent write up from the director under Obama.  It's a goddam travesty.

    If you're talking one person per row I could get behind that. The usual 2 or 3 and I'm out. My other concern in your scenario is getting stuck somewhere if they do halt air travel. If you can swing being in Florida a few weeks, no big deal I guess. But I wouldn't want to get caught up in the chaos of trying to get a one-way car rental or whatever.

    I’m on my second year and I’ve never missed a day. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. I honestly don’t know. During cold or flu season, or if someone around me gets sick I’ll ramp up the drops. Otherwise I stick to 1 or 2 drops daily.
