There is a chance that we may be upgraded into a better than cattle class section with less crowding. The flight from SFO to Sydney will only have Australian citizens and dependents on it because of strict entry requirements into Australia. There will be no US tourists and that will continue until a vaccine becomes available.

The air on the planes should be well filtered, but who knows what the air filtering will be on the buses that take all the passengers and luggage to the quarantine hotel. I plan to get some disposable gloves from the infusion center just before we leave.

I am not suggesting anyone to ignore the COVID-19 guidelines. Just saying there lot of BS in the media about COVID-19.
For example, please keep talking about increased infections in the south no one mentions the fact that mortality rate is not increasing, which is a good news.

A lot of people still dying every day in Texas and Florida. Then again, it's too soon to tell since you can linger for weeks. Also, there's significant evidence of permanent damage to lungs and other organs in people who recover. A narrator friend of mine, a formerly healthy guy, is still struggling to get his breath and his energy back two months after "recovering" and has to limit his work schedule.
Numbers are looking good in MD and VA because people are lying low. I hope it stays that way. We were doing great here in Oregon until we "opened up." Now we're spiking again.
Hey, the "open up" crowd says vulnerable people should just stay at home. Well, that's what a lot of us older folks are doing. So don't complain when we make that choice.
