I don’t think they are intentionally trying to scare me. I just think that where I live, many people aren’t as scared of this virus as they should be. And the joggers/cyclists are largely healthy and in an age group
where they think getting seriously ill isn’t all that likely.
I remember another group of five guys, all in their early 20’s, who were running in a pack and came within a couple feet of me. I moved over and covered my face, and one of the guys looked back and laughed, and told his friends who also looked back. Like I was the idiot.
Another time, I heard a rollerblader across the street from me coughing away. I walked away as quickly as I could and hoped he would go the other direction. Nope. Heard him approaching, coughing away. I really thought that was it for me.
