It’s a fair point. Though I switch phones after 2 yrs anyway, as the performance becomes too sluggish (both on my iphone and One+)

With the SE2, it’s mostly paying for the brand (and the benefit/need of staying in the Apple ecosystem). The performance of those $300 phones is quite stellar.

Drive-throughs, deliveries, take outs are far safer options then. Covid-19 can only be contained if people maintain their distance; atleast till mass-testing is fully in place.

All those are fair points; but it’s a choice between risking a mass infection vs. opening these businesses.

“ that also fulfills these two criteria that are specifically bad for pandemics:

The US is not the largest country in the world, neither by size, nor by population.
