gollark: I imagine shopping spreads it a lot.
gollark: Oh, it definitely slows down spread. I'm just saying that it doesn't *stop* it, which is why you still have new cases.

gollark: Yes, and that's not total enough to totally stop spread.
gollark: Probably because you cannot actually do *total* lockdown.
