What is social distancing? The goal of social distancing is to limit exposure by reducing face-to-face contact and preventing spread among people in community settings. What these actions look like at the community level will vary depending on local conditions. In Tulare County social distancing has been a real big problem from people going into protests with no mask and people throwing parties with a large number of people. The highest number of Covid cases was in July where the total was 12,807. The numbers have decreased a tremendous amount all the way to 2,950.
With the cases dropping this much and us being in our senior year of high school, if you maintain social distancing hopefully our lives go back to normal sooner than we thought it would. Also, for all of us athletes we could also go back to playing sports for our last year in high school. Finally, if you’re a senior as well as a junior and you want to have a graduation, prom, and grad night, social distance. This is why I believe that people should continue social distancing as well as wearing a mask.
