Quite a few dance places have reopened. Perhaps the most "normal" folk dance event was at Moira Furnace Folk Festival (short report) I think a lot of people need to re-evaluate the situation because it HAS changed. I started the pandemic in the "Not 70 but act like it" group. The original virus was not particularly infectious and avoiding it completely as I did was feasible. Now, we have the highly infectious Delta and I'm double vaxed (although that's gradually fading). I am going to encounter the virus whether I go dancing or not so I might as well dance. Things are not going to get any safer. OK, I would be a little bit safer if I waited for a booster but I've got a bucket list to get on with :-)
