  I prefer red wine when I drink wine. But my drink of choice is either beer or bourbon.

All B.S. aside, Red Wine is loaded with anti-inflammatory compounds.   Inflammation creates an immune response.  With the virus, us old farts need as much immunity as we can get.  I am going to break out the St. James Winery stash and have a few bottles.  We used to go to St. Louis every 6 months and would stop at St. James MO and stock up every trip...

Thank you Bobby for your service and stating what should be the obvious. It really isn’t all about me. It is about keeping YOU safe as well. The idea that people are cowering in fear boggles my mind. Yeah, if my spouse gets Covid, hell even the flu, she’s more than likely dead. I’m also high risk due to medication I take. Just being cautious. I still go to my job, as making wine is deemed essential in California. But I sure do all I can to limit my exposure to others for their safety as well as my own. Weighing money vs. lives is absurd. Who exactly among us, are expendable? The field workers are also still hard at it. Doing all those jobs that Americans say they want back. Yeah, sure.

The burn bans were implemented for a number of reasons.
 
 
 
Most fire departments also run Emergency Medical Services as well as typical Fire/Rescue.  With that being said firefighters in some areas are getting infected with Covid (over 50 in New Orleans) leaving fire departments short handed to deal with other emergencies.
 
 
 
The smoke from these fires exasperates issues with breathing problems for folks that have Covid and other respiratory issues.
 
 
 
It’s also about adding a layer of social distancing in an attempt to limit interaction with possibly infected people by firefighters and further short staffing of departments for more dire emergencies.  And of course lessening the possibility that an infected firefighter would pass on the virus as well.
 
 
 
In my department’s case we were also short 4 firefighters that would have normally responded due to being embedded in an isolation site for a fire watch patrol 24 hours a day seven days per week.  
 
 
 
Add in the bad weather (tornado’s) the northern part of our state has been hit with in the last 3 weeks creating a different set of problems.  The state activated our Urban Search and Rescue team to respond to the Monroe area last week.
 
 
 
 
 
So,  it’s not about exercising power or control, but simply and attempt to not create further issues with fires getting out of control and not having enough people to deal with it “preservation of life and property”.
 
 
 
Hope this helps better understand the issues/concerns we have
