Suggestion is for supermarkets to reserve some early hours for senior citizens to do their shopping---ahead of the crowd so to speak. Probably a wise move, in light of the catastrophic virus and its toll specifically on the elderly. But the spokesperson further elaborated on that idea by saying it may also work well for regular episodes of influenza. That is a fairly extended time period.
So the rationale apparently is to further prioritize senior citizens in their access to grocery stores and supermarkets. Beware, though, of any governmental suggestion which seems to be Orwellian in nature. Suggestions can lead to recommendations which can lead to regulations. For added convenience and economy of preparation, the elderly can be identified and herded into the venues most appropriate for their ages. Oh, if parable we must, Freedom becomes Slavery.
