Lay low and wait for Joe, action on a national level is the solution and you will do what you must, it might include heavy fines and it might include detention camps, but it will be done.
As for the kids, it's sad and not much can be done, I think school is out of the question until target infection rates are achieved. Schools are open as normal here, in NS we have 4 active cases and one in ICU. Personally I live like a monk. My sister passed away the other day and we are having a quiet memorial service at the funeral home, just a few family. I wasn't there, but said my good bye's earlier, it was a place and time for children and grand children, covid restricted the visitors to 4 at a time. We feel lucky that we could be there with her, the restrictions on visitors were lifted just before she went into the hospital. She was at peace and ready, wanted it in fact, there was no tragedy, just an end to pain and a normal end to a life. Nobody gets out alive.
