Our place was put into a General Quarantine for a couple of weeks. Yes, it is only a general quarantine since we don't have a surge of COVID19 cases in our place. We are very thankful but not complacent. A week ago our local chief executive has lifted the quarantine, though this doesn't mean that people without an important business can easily go out. Schools are still closed, some establishments are now open. However, restaurants are allowed to operate but they are not allowed to have dine-in customers. The traffic is back and it is bad. I missed the wide empty streets, it had brought me peace for the past weeks that our place was put on quarantine. I have seen that lots of people are coming in and out of grocery stores and I find it so overwhelming. Physical distancing fails really and I wonder what these people are thinking. I hope though that there will be no more COVID19 cases. But, if people will continue to be undisciplined then what should we expect?

This is a bad idea. People flocked to the malls like tourists. So much for social distancing and flattening the curve.

i doubt if such won't worsen the case.

You miss the empty space of the road but you don't feel the problem of the drivers whose source of income is driving. Let's be considerate.
