Thank you Curious Aardvark.
How many people die from alcohol every year counts in the millions. How many crimes are committed under alcohol, most of the crimes are all the work of alcohol. The coronavirus pales in comparison to alcohol and its harms.

    I was a traffic accident investigator for the army for three years in Seoul, Korea and miserable hell hole Ft. Campbell, Kentucky.  Most of the really bad accidents I did were in Korea.  I can't think of one accident involving fatalities or serious injuries where alcohol wasn't involved.  At every scene there was always that smell. 
    I have/had an ex brother in law, Cliff.  He was a heavy drinker.  He destroyed more cars in drunk driving accidents and incidents than I'll ever own.  He would pay his fines, do his six months restriction, and be back out on the road, time after time.  Drunk driving laws are much to lenient, at least here in America.  Drunk driving needs to be treated as the serious crime that it is.  Second time offenders should lose their license forever, pay a really hefty fine, and do hard time.

Alcohol Supports Artificial Tension in Society

So that there was some kind of anxiety and vigilance. I noticed after the coronavirus epidemic, people began to behave no longer adequately. When I was in Mallorca in 2019, there weren't so many crowds of noisy brutal drinking people, it was much less. Not in such a pronounced form, isolation made people antisocial

Dear people, thank you for being you.  Your warm advice and words warm me to this day.  I think about my uncle every day.  Sometimes I cry, I miss him very much.  He comes to me in my dreams.  I love him.  I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for supporting me at a difficult time!  Thank you!

Even though it's been eight months, I can't believe he's gone.  When I lost my grandfather, I could not come to my senses for two years, it is very difficult for me to endure the departure from people's lives.  Such is our life. Everyone experiences life's upheavals in their own way.

I know exactly how you feel. My grandfather passed away about two years ago. He and I were very close. Similar to you and your uncle. I still think of my grandfather often.

I was in a severe car accident at around the same time you were. I could have died. If there was someone in the passenger seat they would have been severely injured if not dead for sure.

Happy Slinging, and God bless my friend.
