Voted yesterday.
Still doing the meaningless temp taking
Making sure all are wearing masks, but no biggie if they are not wearing them properly
Distancing must be optional. Lots of signs, but no enforcement
Finally, the booths are supposed to be cleaned after each voter moves away. Not happening.
Our governor should enforce his own BS.
Two steps forward, one back...and sometimes it's one step forward, two back. Just not making any headway.
Guess it would suffice to update these numbers once a week. It's like one of those silly daytime soap operas (Light at the Edge of the Spinning World) my wife used to watch. You could watch on Monday and come back on Friday and that same group of doctors/nurses were still engage in the same gossipy conversation.
The ROVs have been informed they cannot force people to wear masks - and if a temperature spikes, they are still allowed to voteQuote:

BTW - we are not "officially" taking temps - we have one of those automatic "temp kiosks" but it's not mandatory
Surprisingly folks are using it just to see how it works
We have 4 of those at the entrance of my office building. If your temp does not read "normal" then you will not be able to scan your badge to enter the building.Quote:

Basically, the numbers in Hospital and on Ventilators just haven't changed very much in weeks, probably months. They ease up, the go down, they go back up...
For instance...
June 11
44,472 cases 2,874 deaths
553 in hosp 77 on vents
Similar to the flu, except the flu is horrible on all ages. China Virus is worse for some (even healthy) peeps than others. Some even older people seem to get a "mild case". No "mild case" flu attacks.Quote:

It finally got to my household. My daughter has it and I suspect a couple more of us do. I am awaiting test results. Hoping for a mild case. She either got it at her high school or from my son who was quarantined the same day because someone at his school had it. That would make him an asymptomatic carrier.
Hope you and the rest of your family are able to avoid it.Quote:

I don't think our kids will ever forget this one. My daughter is pretty rapidly turning around. I hope it isn't temporary. She is young though.
