Somehow religious congregations (exact opposite of Social Distancing) keep happening. I (used to) visit temples every week. Its part of my routine. Helps me stay grounded.

We need not bring out our prejudices now, just get out of the way of people trying to help. Sadly, we cannot fix the issues now.
