Maybe it'll work. My initial reaction was "Really?", since I thought it undermined the seriousness of the need for social distancing. Sure, you're changing your logos. But how are you taking care of your employees? How are you setting an example for what people should do to stop the spread of COVID-19?

It may turn out that when we look back a year from now, we will say one of two things: (1) "Wow, what a horrible thing that wiped out millions of lives, like the Spanish Flu," or (2) "Okay, so it turned out it was no big deal except to seniors, who we properly isolated from others for months."
I tend to fall into the latter category, but, fine, we just don't know yet, so good to be cautious. Still, when flu killed 60,000 folks a year just a few years ago, we didn't freak. In fact, maybe I wasn't paying attention, but I don't seem to recall much of any reporting on the high number of deaths back then.
And wife and I and many of our associates have reported that they've had SOMETHING weird in the past few months, unlike any cold or flu they've had in the past. For me, multi-day headache, very tender head like a major hangover, major fatigue, dry cough. No sore throat, no lung bubbling. Was it the virus? Who knows? I do think that in the future when a test for antibodies is easy and cheap, we will discover that most of us had it but with minimal effect.
Anyway, interesting situation. May your family elders come through with flying colors.

You can't not be aware when so many businesses are closed.
But like I said, probably off-topic...

People are aware, they're just in denial. It's basically a meme to some people. Here in KC, we are doing better than most places in the US in terms of infection rate, but I still see gaggles of children playing at the park, apparent get-togethers, etc... to the point where police are being told to enforce social distancing.
