As I write this story, we are in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. Many businesses and institutions are closing, modifying their hours or limiting access to parts of their building. Social distancing is a behavior to help reduce the risk of exposure for people when they need to go into stores, to work or other venues were people gather. The picture above was shared by a friend on social media. It shows the floor of a local Walgreens pharmacy where they have taped it off to indicate where you need to stand to be the proper 6 feet apart for good social distancing.
My friend posted the picture with the following text:
“Walgreens is enforcing the social distance. Please stand on the blue line to check out.”
One of her friends replied, “Why not just go through the drive through?”
She answered, “Can’t get toilet paper in the tube thing at the drive through”.
