In my case the reaction has been mixed. Day to day hasn't changed much.
I try not to hold on to the rail in the metro as much as before, and
anyway I was always washing my hands when getting to whatever place I
was getting to (home, work, a restaurante, etc). That daily routine has
been kept as usual.
Well, three weeks have passed since my e-mail. Things have changed fast:
- Working from home, so no more subway for me.
- No eating out, take-away food or anything else. A lot of restaurants
in Montreal are closed anyway.
- Just getting out of the house twice a week more or less to buy
groceries, and we wipe all plastic stuff with disinfectant wipes as soon
as we get home. Some people say that's too much, but we don't want to
run the risk.
In the meantime, public statements have changed slowly but steadily from
"a Montreal lockdown is not on the table" to a place where I can
actually see it happening next week. Let's see what happens.
Stay safe our there.
