"Social Distancing"

In the first place, as someone pointed out, it should be called physical distancing, not social distancing. Thanks to social media, and the good old telephone, we are able to socialize. In fact, people now have more time and are reaching out to people they haven't talked to in ages. So actually, in some very important sense, we have more socializing than before.
In the second place, it is not certain that this physical distancing actually contributes to stopping the spread of the disease. This interview with an expert speaks to this issue, at least until the interviewer decides we don't need to hear from this expert who is not toeing the party line.
