Even parks are going to look different after the coronavirus.
As the weather gets warmer and lockdown restrictions are gradually lifted, more people are going to start spending their days outside. However, since social distancing is still needed to stay safe from the coronavirus, spending the day in the park might look a little different.

Dubbed “human parking spots,” video posted to social media shows parkgoers setting up in each circle. Some people stretched, others exercised while some just lounged and enjoyed the nice weather.

In a later post, she commented on the situation, saying, “Looking at those circular human parking spaces in Domino made me think, if you were to take video footage from the world today and show it to someone from 2019, they would think it was from some near-future Hollywood dystopian television show instead of real life."
