It's unfair of me not to think about the risk that I pose to other people as I go about my day and do my things.

They don’t sugarcoat it—virtual meetings aren't a perfect substitute for face-to-face interactions. Yet, they emphasize that staying connected, even digitally, is crucial. Billy puts it bluntly: 'It's unfair of me not to think about the risk that I pose to other people as I go about my day and do my things'.
This episode is a reminder that our actions affect others, especially those with compromised health. The hosts offer practical advice for maintaining recovery during these strange times. From calling your support network to exploring web conferencing options, they provide a toolkit for staying sober.
