Mar. 30 POLL RESULTS: How long have you been practicing social distancing?

On March 30, about 10 days ago, we asked Milton Neighbors how long they’ve been practicing social distancing. This poll was open for 8 days.

Here are the results:

1-3 days: 1%

3-6 days: 1%

7-10 days: 6%

More than 10 days: 91%

I am not practicing social distancing: Less than 1%

Comments:

Some teenagers and people in their early 20s, I see and hear of, need to start understanding that they too are a part of our community and need to social distance. This may be a really tough part of parenting right now, but we are all in this together!!!

Only going out for walks to get exercise. Keeping a social distance.

Only time I don’t is when people are in too much of a “rush” to care and just come into space, despite my efforts.

Started as soon as the schools closed.

Simple. Act as if you and everyone else may have it, even if you’re asymptomatic.

Family has essentially been in quarantine since March 12th.

I found out on the 16th I was exposed to covid patient for 12 hours before they were diagnosed. Haven’t left the house other then for work since then.

I am trying to make sure my family or 93 year old grandmother does not get sick!

Not strict on 6 ft or more so if someone comes closer than 3 or 4 feet at the supermarket I’m not overly concerned but generally try to stay 6 ft or more away. Also only go out to supermarket, once to hardware store, and very rarely for takeout.

Also this golden comment from Milton’s favorite introvert:

Really my whole life, haha!
