That’s not a change in attitude. That’s a change in reality. Prior to March Corona hadn’t had any effect on my life at all. Then the mayor closed the gyms. And the restaurants. And the bars. And my place of business went to voluntary work at home. then the big shutdown hit and work turned off our badges. Now I’ve been 99% at home for 3 weeks. So it has effected me drastically. Mind you I only know 1 person who got it, and it was mild, and they’re over it. But it sure has changed my life.

If “changed” is a euphemism for wrecked, yeah, my life has been “changed”.

"That’s not a change in attitude. That’s a change in reality. Prior to March Corona hadn’t had any effect on my life at all."

Exactly. I've been following the stats and taking notes. Here are the numbers from my notes on MARCH 30TH, two weeks AFTER the national emergency was declared:

Corona Virus Deaths By State

Zero deaths: 12 states
1-5 deaths: 25 states
6-10 deaths: 6 states
11-15 deaths: 2 states
16-20 deaths: 1 state

Two weeks after the national emergency was declared, 46 states had 20 or fewer deaths. We now have over 40,000. THAT is why opinions have changed.
