long distance and high risk

Two weeks ago, my roommate (who is also one of my best friends) told me she was going to drive 12 hours to quarantine with her long-distance boyfriend in California. Not only that, he was going to fly here and she’d pick him up from the airport and they’d start the drive straight from there. I thought this was idiotic. California already had shelter in place orders, plus getting on a plane was unnecessarily risky. Even more idiotic? We were waiting on covid-19 test results from a friend who we’d been around a week before. Six hours after my roommate left, our friend texted to say she’d tested positive. When I messaged my roommate to tell her she had to be extra careful with undertones of “what the fuck is wrong with you,” she told me I’m not the authority. I haven’t spoken directly to her since. I hope she stays in California. My friend who was (so frighteningly) sick has recovered, thank god.
