I have not read all the posts, my apologies.
But here in our province we are beginning to get a spike in cases. A small number is because we are starting to open up our schools, so a few positive cases for teachers and a few students who now have to be quarantined and in some cases the entire class.
But the rest of the increase is due to people attending larger gatherings and people not social distancing or wearing masks. 40% of the cases are in the under 40 year olds who have attended gatherings in doors of 50 people (and maybe more) or outdoor venues of more than 100. As of today we are allowed 50 people indoors, but if we cannot distance ourselves then masks must be worn, the same procedure for the larger outdoor groups. These indoor gatherings are in homes or larger banquet halls used for weddings, christening/baptism parties etc.
People eating at outdoor patios and in restaurants have not been impacted because these businesses are extremely vigilant in keeping patrons separated and sanitizing everything in sight.
This may all change in a few days, when the Premier of Ontario may scale some areas back to stage 2 or 1 for a certain length of time to reduce our increase.
indoor gatherings / meetings of people in Virginia are limited to 250 (but I'm not attending )
Restaurants seem to be keeping social distancing - every other table is unoccupied
