Requiring short hours for retail likewise makes no sense — what is needed is to encourage long hours. In the extreme, imagine every store was open 7/24 (very expensive, of course, but just hypothetically): you could go shopping at 03:00 and have the store to yourself. One can’t reduce crowding by reducing the size in time and space of the volume in which the crowd exists.
Right. It makes no sense to reduce hours. We need extended hours, rather. Especially true of grocery stores.
Also, they should ban social gatherings. To say “5 people” is OK, guess what, you have 5 people gathers. Don’t give people a reason to get together. Just say, you have hang out with your household. If you have a 1 person household, then you can hook up with another household as long as they have less than 5 members, and as long as you and the other households aren’t hooking up with other households.
Indeed. It is entirely unnecessary to give a limit of 5, it only serves to confuse things. It makes me wonder who is running these communication programs.
