Appreciate you making the call for more nuance.

What do you make of the South Korea call center, where no one on other floors was infected via the crowded lobby? How do you square that with the scenario you described of recently crowded areas even outdoors during peak outbreak times NYC being a major hazard?

Still very much feels a lot of what made NYC bad was families sheltering in tight quarters, especially in cultures that are very tight knit, with lots of embraces.
