Yeah, I could do that. Also, I have a few of those N95 masks that I can wear on the plane. I picked them up when we had those fires in California a while back and brought them with me to Hawaii just in case. I don't know if they really help or not.
I'm on a Delta jet back to San Jose from Washington D.C. I have an N95 mask on, have for the whole flight, did the gloves and Clorox wipes. We'll see if it works. I'm 57, diabetic, hypertension, heart failure, the works. Maybe if I get the coronavirus I'll just explode...

FWIW, if you are worried about an oppressive environment during the shelter in place, I just got back from a run in/around Golden Gate Park in SF and it felt *busier* than normal, with tons of joggers, runners, strollers, bikes, etc. Folks were generally keeping a safe distance and not in groups larger than two, but if I didn't already know there was a shelter in place, I would not have guessed it based on my environment. The upside to California in the winter is every day it's not raining is a great day to get outside, and individual outdoor activities are not part of the shelter in place prohibition.
Nice day in D. C. this past weekend. Everything was closed, so I headed down to the upscale wharf and fish market for lunch. Hope the very-lightly-cooked shrimp and attendant bacteria killed any viruses I may have had.
Place was seriously packed with people. Tough to socially distance, but just barely doable.
