No it isn't. You MAYBE prevent a person with a fever from entering, but you don't prevent all people with China Virus from entering. Also, if a person has a low grade fever, they pop a couple of Tylenol and enter while sick with whatever caused the fever.
I watched this crap happen at the Orthopedic Clinic in Monroe early in the week. So many elderly and sick are getting exposed to who knows what because the ridiculous temp taking gives people a false sense of security.
Same with Hospitals.
McFly... is anyone home?
It is a 5 second inconvenience to help slow the spread of Covid. No one is saying it solves the problem. You are also supposed to ask if they have had symptoms.
If someone wants to lie and take Tylenol to deceive the business, you can’t stop that without much much greater inconvenience.
My wife temp tests her clients at the beginning and ending big the day as a precaution against parents medicating their kids to avoid detection.
This is all about balancing safety against the cost of mitigation. Temp testing is the most common sense step you can take.
I have no problem with "common sense, pragmatic" protocols.
Who are these people who are too stupid to know when they “might” have a fever? Common sense does not prevent those who don’t have fever from spreading it. This check point crap is as ridiculous as telling people masks protect them and others.
Many people don’t know when they are running a mild fever. Most folks don’t take their temperature when they go out.
Masks and temp checks have been proven to make us safer. They don’t solve the problem entirely, but they are common sense and easy ways to reduce the spread.
If you had your way, they would have to go full lockdown again. No one wants that.
Could be worse...could be using rectal thermometers.
I was checked 3 times in a 5-minute span recently at the courthouse, as they have different checkpoints, one at the entrance and two more inside. I had to go to the different parts of the building to pick up a report and then have a meeting, so lucky me, I got to pass all three. At the main door, I was 98.6, at the first check point, 2nd floor, I was 99.2, then down the hall, 98.4. All in under 5 minutes. I suppose the inexpensive digital devices have some "play" in 'em.
You feel bad or feverish you take your own temp. You are saying some don’t know when they feel bad (feverish). That’s BS. Distancing is common sense
My body always feels feverish (since I'm always fighting an infection), so I usually ignore it unless there is something else going on, too. The highest temp I've had since February is 99.7.
He did it? No. The Governor has been consistent in his stance on abortion.
Churches have absolutely not been closed, even the smallest of them.
I guess a temp measurement as a screening tool is easy enough for a haircut place to manage, versus testing for the virus...
Common sense...you get a playbook, you execute it. Again, what you do differently?
He deemed the abortion clinics "essential". Totally his call. Yes he has been consistent to follow the dirty money.
Many churches have been closed. Even the smallest of them. Not sure where you have been for the past six months.
Been though the ridiculous temp thing. See other posts.
Distancing is the only common sense thing remaining. If he want's to make a difference he should enforce the distancing "rules" he has put in place instead of ignoring them in all the "essential" businesses.
I'm making my weekly 7:00 AM run to Walmart this morning. By the time I leave around 7:45 the store will be packed with obese hover round riders who should never have left their homes. THERE'S a problem that would be easily solved with a common sense approach, but it would be deemed discrimination.
You gotta start fact checking your Facebook news.
