Too bad some people just don't seem to get it. And you can take that statement any way you want...

While some of them are openly defying the rules based on principals, I imagine most are doing it so they do t lose their business. Good, bad or otherwise.

It’s been largely the same where I’m at here in VA. Once it got cold all the outdoor diners went inside. We’re limited to 50% occupancy and while I’m not sure of the legality, most places seem to be counting their makeshift outdoor dining areas as part of their occupancy limit, so a lot of indoor dining is as packed as it would be on a typical Friday/Saturday night pre-covid. I had been doing food delivery up until places started filling up in the fall. Thru no part of this past year have I been willing to dine in, so it started to seem especially stupid to waltz into restaurants that are packed with maskless folks to pick up food for some rando. |

I've had to write off the majority of the places we eat at unfortunately. The Mask compliance and occupancy requirements aren't being upheld at all.
There's a couple of places we go to that have consistently been awesome, so there's that. I can still get tacos, sandwiches, coffee and pho, lol. |

It seems pretty straight forward to me; If you're not willing to maintain some basic requirements to prevent spreading a virus during a pandemic, I no longer have any faith in your sanitation process during regular times.
I know they're hurting, well over half my friends are in the service industry or own restaurants etc. But it's a volatile industry even in the best of times, and loss of profitability should never be a reason for endangering public health. |

You fight for no taxes, you get exactly this. Suck it up, nothing is guaranteed which is why we are supposed to have safety nets. This situation was inevitable and caused by them. Sorry but your small business is not a corporation. Period. So stop voting for things that are only giving you crumbs. |

Right now we are 4 people in our house. Me, my wife, our 5 year old kid and our 23 year old niece who is currently working on her Doctorate in PT. I tested positive in my weekly test at work (I work IT for a nursing home company and have been required to come in to the office every day since this all started, but I bitch about that MUCH more in other posts) last week. Test done on Tuesday, results wednesday night. Right away everybody in the house masked up. I moved myself and a couple of weeks worth of clothes to one of our spare bedrooms with it's own full bath. Niece has had run of the basement suite so she can study while staying with us. So she's already somewhat isolated. Wife kid and niece test thursday morning. Niece's rapid test came back "Inconclusive" but wife and kid both had PCR tests and they came back negative. We inform his daycare that he would be out for 2 weeks as a direct contact with a positive. Wife goes on FMLA for 2 weeks as well. Friday our niece does a PCR test and it comes back sunday as positive. So, 2 positives and 2 negatives in the house. Anytime anybody is in the common area of the house, we are masked. Wife and kid do not use "my" bathroom, nor come in to "my" bedroom. To get to the garage in the basement, we go around the side of the house instead of through the living area in the basement. This friday will be 10 days post end of symptoms for me, and the CDC says 10 days from the start of symptoms, so we are giving it another 1.5 days more than CDC says. I did have the first round of the pfizer vaccine before I tested positive, so we are betting that shortened the duration and should make me more likely to NOT be contagious. Take-aways. We are lucky that we have enough spare rooms that we can do this. Wife is lucky that she has enough sick time that SHE can take the 2 weeks for this. We are lucky that she and our kid did NOT get this as there is no vaccine for kids yet. Even with masks, I do my dead level best to stay more than 6' away from them at all times, and share common space as little as possible. KN95 with an additional cloth mask over for me and our niece and a KN95 for wife and a well fitted cloth mask for the kid (KN95 will not fit his face, so a well fitted cloth mask will do MUCH better for him.). |

Inevitable and caused by them? I know it’s really easy to hate anybody trying to make a living owning a business, but maybe put yourself in their shoes. |

the reaction of the person who reads that is going to be to fire the store manager and put someone in place who will allow more guests in.

Twin 2 still has had no symptoms, but since we were all together (me and the twins) all week, if 1 of us has it we all have it. The logistics for the family to all isolate, which is damn near impossible for twins who spend nearly 24 hours a day together for 10 years. Sure, they have separate bedrooms, but they share a bathroom. We opted to have wife come out of isolation into the house with us and we're staying isolated from everyone until mid Feb. I know the hospitals I work for have negative pressure covid rooms, so does isolating in a house with a standard HVAC do anything? Won't her coughing germs last week have gone into the HVAC system and spread around the whole house anyways? |

Got the 5G microchip installed today. Was kept for additional 30 min. for observation due to listing food allergy on the form (Probably helping build up data collection for those who could have vaccine allergic reaction). Other than slight dull pain at injection site, nothing so far. Unable to sync with phone, no signs of improved reception, nor signs of super powers manifesting.

pretty sure what he was getting at without giving the appropriate context:
https://www.apa.org/monitor/2020/10/...ive%20outcomes. and here's some real numbers of business closures: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...-yelp-n1240209 the answer isn't as cut/dry as 'businesses need to remain open' because obviously, when people are mingling in close proximity indoors, that's when this thing spreads the fastest. but the answer also can't be 'close all the businesses' cause that has some very direct and serious effects too. |
