The isolation part is probably the worst: people in nursing homes can't have visitors: they die alone with no one to comfort them: people in the hospital can't have visitors: all those 190,000 people died alone in the hospital. No normal funerals either. Just a horror. In times of crisis we have always relied on each other for comfort: because of this virus we can no longer do that. I remember 3 years ago when i was hospitalized for almost a week- I couldn't wait to see my husband-- and when he left I was so lonely, only waiting for his return.
I read these posts about isolation, fear of activities based on a "Risk Scale," not going out to eat, etc., and am so grateful that my wife, although being in several high risk categories, said, in April, "well, I have to die of something," and decided to just keep living like it is 2019. I really need to thank her.
