I was at the store yesterday while entering I saw an older Asian touch every ****ing part of a shopping cart and didn't take said cart. He didn't even bother wiping it down. I called him out over it. Does that make me look like an asshole? I don't care. Society needs to be more forceful on this front. |

We need to be producing billions of masks, millions of gallons of hand sanitizer, and millions of containers of disinfecting wipes. If we can do that, then you can ease restrictions substantially. I still don't think you could have restaurants and bars open (because people would have their masks off to eat), but you could open most businesses as long as people were wearing masks while working and adhering to some level of distancing. Schools could be re-opened with temp scans at the entrance, and lunch could be served in classrooms to mitigate exposure. Travelers in airports should be required to wear N95 masks before they set foot in the airport. No one in the door or on a shuttle unless they're wearing one. If hotspots re-emerged, then you could have rolling quarantines of those areas with travel restrictions. It is a drastic step, but I think you could regain a substantial portion of economic activity while also limiting the spread of the virus and ensuring that hospitals are not overwhelmed. |

That’s the scary part one hospitalized patient no matter the age or condition can risk infecting a lot of medical workers over the course of their stay. ( doctors, nurses , lab, diagnostics, cleaning staff, clerks )Opening things up too early would be brutal on the health care workers. My wife has gotten a lot of requests from medical workers for stress leave and we haven’t even had a positive case at our hospital yet.
