May 17, 2020 - Covid-19 Pandemic
by Michele L. Mueller on 05/17/20So the state supreme court rescinded Governor Ever's Safer at Home extension for Wisconsin. Therefore, all is back to normal before the virus was even a thing. Sure, are people asked to follow the guidelines and wear masks, wash hands and disinfect high touchable surfaces - especially for businesses...but many aren't. The grocery store was packed yesterday, no social distancing, maybe 3 masked people, lines, and the same for the outdoor restaurant seating I drove by. It was like the twilight zone! I felt as though I was the only one who had a bad nightmare about a virus and suddenly woke up! We all hear talk about the "new normal". Well...I'm here to tell ya, yesterday it was the OLD NORMAL - like nothing ever happened. One day people are scared to leave their homes and the next day...they can't get out to enough places and close enough to enough people! It was weird.
