Do family groups or even groups of friends gathering at the beach pose a major threat of a new spike? I& #39;m a lot more worried about indoor transmission.

Since we& #39;re in it for the long haul, people need to be able socialize somehow. Outdoors seems good.

I& #39;m all for wearing masks in those situations, taking every reasonably hygiene precaution, not congregating in large groups, etc.

But a short sharp absolute lockdown didn& #39;t work. I& #39;d think it& #39;s time for harm reduction combined with masks, testing, work-from-home, etc.

To be clear, the short sharp lockdown didn& #39;t work because we didn& #39;t have buy-in nationwide, not because it doesn& #39;t work in principle. It worked very well in many parts of the work.

Here in the US, neither leaders nor a large part of the populace were on board.
