I conceded most of your points.
I did not concede your main claim, that customer reusable containers should not be allowed.
I put my own view that they should be allowed (not mind you, that shops be required to accept them), AND that there should be a charge for any disposable container.
I didn't bother making the argument that reusable plastic is pollution and should be discouraged, because plainly you don't give a fuck about pollution. Not interested, right?
With that last note I was trying to return our conversation to something even vaguely related to covid-19.
Do you have any alternative way to discourage customers from using cash? Or are we just going to rely on food staff to do what you admit the general public doesn't ...
Would you be interested if I were to create a new thread?

I almost always use cash, but I recognize that it's a luxury I'm not entitled to. If a store will only take card, that's fair enough.
Dunno what I'll do when stores stop even taking cards and I can only pay with a phone. Not comfortable with it!

I expressed my concerns about India in the last thread last month.Unfortunately, no one paid attention to it at that time.Now I can say again that India is in a very dangerous situation

Some people are very opposed to letting big corporations (and/or government) know where they spend money.
I'm kind of in-between. My information is worth money to Them, I don't like to give that away. But I don't really care if They know I had a falafel for lunch, or where I was when I did. So I use cash but preference, but card when I have to.

It's strange that when using credit card, the bank will also know this information?People believe in banks but not technology companies.

Banks arent analyzing that data, making detailed analysis of who you are and what you like, then using that data to get you to buy shit. As an example, customers in target are given an identity number. Based on your purchases, they can even predict when you are pregnant and your due date with so much accuracy that they accidently inform people they are pregnant.
One father stormed into a target and demanded to know why they were sending ads for infant stuff to his daughter. Thought they were encouraging her to get pregnant. Turned out his daughter was pregnant and didnt know it yet. They were able to tell this by some of the items she was buying before she knew because they analyzed the items women buy in the early stages of pregnancy and predicted it based on that.

The incidence of all serious adverse events (SAEs) in the first four hours after transfusion was <1%, including mortality rate (0.3%). Of the 36 reported SAEs, there were 25 reported incidences of related SAEs, including mortality (n=4), transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO; n=7), transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI; n=11), and severe allergic transfusion reactions (n=3).
However, only 2 (of 36) SAEs were judged as definitely related to the convalescent plasma transfusion by the treating physician. The seven-day mortality rate was 14.9%.

I can only surmise that being small, pet cats don't shed enough virus to infect owners. It still doesn't seem right, it's the same virus isn't it? And people get very close to their cats don't they?
Glad I don't have cats, frankly. I'd be worried (for myself).
It's still good. If your cat were to get infected by the virus, it wouldn't jump to you at least and it doesn't seem to be lethal to cats. I haven't adopted a cat because of CoVID19 yet. Frankly, I'll just wait until this pandemic passes and then I'll look. But for those cat owners out there who are worried about their feline companion, this is at least positive.
