I work with hospitals and was on one of their weekly staff meetings about a month ago. The doc running the call said he didn't expect their hospitals to start allowing visitors until there is a vaccine.
We've got a nonrefundable hotel room in Jacksonville. If they play the cocktail party in front of an empty stadium, I suppose we'll watch it from the sports bar in the hotel lobby. Or the 19th hole of a Jacksonville-area golf course. Making lemonade out of lemons and all.
We have been incredibly fortunate. I have two friends that caught the virus and both recovered after hospital stays, I can work remote so closing the office in mid-March was no great burden. My job is made slightly harder not being able to travel, but we work through those challenges. Like I said, incredibly blessed.
Will be surreal to watch a football game with no crowd, but it is what it is.
Go 'dawgs!
