Valid question. In my case, I have assessed the risk and have a mitigation plan. We can't camp, my wife's back won't take sleeping in a tent and I don't have access to an RV of any kind.
So we are renting a condo on Vancouver Island. My plan includes:
- Recent negative test - got our results Saturday.
- We are still not participating in Phase 2 of the opening, haven't been to a restaurant or bar.
- We will be driving out straight shot, have planned our fuel and bathroom stops to minimize interactions
- We have a container of wipes, sanitizer, masks, gloves, etc
- We will bring some of our groceries.
- We don't plan on doing much besides reading and watching the ocean.
The community we are staying in has low case numbers and we don't want to impact that. With doing a bit more than we are already doing at home I feel it is a manageable risk.
Since March shut down, I've been at 50+ hours a week and my wife is in health care. We are both pretty burned out and need a change of scenery from WFH.
