Same here. While I'm fairly impressed with how well Miami has embraced being locked down, I still know plenty of people who are unwilling to give up some of their routine or creature comforts. Other than exercising solo, we're on lockdown here. No take-out, no socially distant parties or group gatherings, pretty much nothing but isolating as a family. I have friends and family who still go out for that cafecito or get take-out regularly. Some haven't embraced the idea that if they decide to get together with just one other group, but people in that other group are also meeting up with different other groups, they're part of the spread.
