Popular Post Airehead Posted November 9, 2020 Popular Post Share #1 Posted November 9, 2020 Most of my County is now yellow. I must find a way to test 20% of my staff and students each week starting WEDNESDAY. Still waiting on directions from the county but I am applying to be a certified lab. I will have to pull staff from their real work to do this. I am determined we will stay open. Our kids and families need us open. If we cannot test, we must go all remote. Failure is not an option. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted November 10, 2020 Share #3 Posted November 10, 2020 You two are really inspirational. Kudos to you and the other people who really do have jobs that directly and personally impact the people with special needs for whatever reason. This year has been hard for a lot of reasons, but you make a real difference to the young and the elderly who need you. I appreciate all the thought you put into making sure their needs are met, but that you are doing everything possible to keep them safe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parr8hed Posted November 10, 2020 Share #6 Posted November 10, 2020 I thought this was all going to go away after Nov 3rd? I am testing about 11 people today. Have your people swing by here and I will try to test them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted November 10, 2020 Share #11 Posted November 10, 2020 OC CA is trending well below the national average and better than our neighboring counties but we are seeing increases as well. We had more reported cases this week with our employee base (all remote) than last week. Last week exceeded the previous week so we are seeing with my firm too.

groupw Posted November 10, 2020 Share #12 Posted November 10, 2020 Things are not good here, right now. Numbers are up sharply. More people in our sphere getting positives. So far we have had enough time from when we saw them we are ok....so far.. Talked to a Dr friend over the weekend. She is so frustrated that patients and people in general will not take measures unless ordered to and the governor won't do a mask mandate despite hospitalizations at alarming levels. The new DHM is all over the map about what businesses should do and there is not a lot of rhyme or reason to the recommended practices except to keep certain businesses open. I have friends in those businesses and even they are confused by the way it's being handled this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems an order for mask wearing in stores or the like is pretty much a no-brainer at this point. Am I missing something? I assume the national chains all have mask rules in effect, so a mask order would just spread it to the smaller businesses with no cost impact whatsoever. Seems a win-win. Healthy customers and remain open. Unhealthy customers and closed with no revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healthy customers and remain open. Unhealthy customers and closed with no revenue. It should be a no-brainer but that would require independent thought. He is very much a follower of his party leaders. I’m doing my best to keep this non-political, but some politicians and their followers won’t let that happen. There are business people and public opposed to masks because of certain political figures and their influence. The governor supports their political position even though he acknowledges the medical risks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were the first. The state gave up on contact tracing. Too many calls to make. Wyoming governor: There will be no mask order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourists would walk into businesses and yell at the staff if they had a masks required sign on the door. One business owner said it's not your constitutional right to buy a crappy t-shirt.
