I'm sure he made the most of it. At least he lived his life.

You missed this part 

According to MDH, the man was in his 60s and had underlying health conditions

Maybe he had a disease that was killing him and decided to go one last time. The article does not say he died from the virus. We don't know

Doesn't matter. Look this dummy got the covid and died is much more catchy and allows smugness to rule the day.

I'm out. I got the information I needed. Now we are just back to the same corners and inability to consider another persons thoughts, feelings and opinions.

Maybe it's like herd immunity, having a high enough percentage of people wear masks is sufficient to slow the spread? Then those retailers may have already had high enough compliance among shoppers to have their revised policies show no impact. 

Sadly you need more than 70% of a population to be "inoculated" to have herd immunity; it's why the promise of a vaccine is hollow to me, since we barely got 1 in 4 to get their flu shot this year.

Sadly yes. Another teachable moment for the elderly- whom the virus affects the most- wasted instead to lord over them. Shame isn't effective, and yet people still think it is thanks to our monkey brains.
