Completely Conspicuous 530: Quarantine Dream

Completely Conspicuous 530: Quarantine Dream

This week on Quarantining With Kumar, I talk about how life has changed drastically in a short period of time because of COVID-19.

Show notes:

- Recorded while driving around to get some essentials

- Day 5 of self-quarantine, working from home

- The state of Massachusetts has pretty much closed all non-essential businesses

- We haven't experienced anything like this before (in my lifetime)

- Life after 9/11 was weird, but got back to normal fairly quickly

- Some states have implemented "shelter in place" rules

- Social distancing is the big buzzword

- Public gatherings are outlawed

- Spring breakers defied warnings

- Everything's getting canceled: Sports, trips, concerts

- We need to stay home to keep virus from spreading

- Most people I know are complying with the quarantine

- Musicians are doing livestreams instead of concerts

- Optimistic this will end soon, but it's hard to tell

- Watching out for older folks who are more susceptible to virus

- Some people are freaking out with conspiracy theories

- Got to ride this thing out

- Stay positive
