Is there a website that is tracking SA's daily numbers in a chart or graph? I'm curious as to to the daily infections over time.

So as of right now we've got about 1000 cases and 40 deaths, half of which came at one nursing home. The business carnage won't be apparent until we reopen, but it's likely going to be really, really bad.
So not only trample your business, but require more man hours and equipment costs to stay open? Closing down bars is enough.bam02 said:
So now our wonderful mayor and dewshy county judge are requiring all business to screen every customer with temp checks and a questionnaire before entering. I thought the masks worked. Guess not.
Such BS
So Nuremburg shows up at a protest with his mask around his ear and takes the microphone to pontificate, but mister high and mighty touts the absolute mask theory. Then he is dumb enough to require businesses to get extra staff to monitor temperatures and act like hall monitors only to walk that back when he actually talks to some people? He has NO business acumen and Wolff has been a complete buffoon his whole career. I'd rather hold a lottery at the zoo and put whatever animal in charge to run this place by crapping on squares to make decisions like chicken bingo.Macarthur said:
I'm gonna go ahead and post an unpopular opinion that I think the city leaders are doing as good a job as they can with a very bad situation.
I think there's a lot of cheap grandstanding going on that if those people were the ones in power that had to take accountability for these decisions would have a bit diff take.

But you are welcome to your opinion.

Watch the video. He should have never had it off if it is so imperative to wear it. He is SURROUNDED by people, many without masks. Lead by example or he's a huge hyporcrite. So yes, I am hammering him since it's "his rules". Good for thee, not for me.

As for your first point, great, you are doing fantastic work. But consider the scenario at Johnnie Choaks Hardware store. Post young person to be club bouncer at the door. Pay him/her $8-10 per hour to stand there all day long taking temps just waiting for someone to start raising hell and causing a ruckus that said young person is now embroiled in. Store owner is out that amount of money and now has to de-escalate a situation that is totally unnecessary and he had it thrust upon him. Glad mayor dork backed off of that.

This seems like a bit of a reach. Should he have a mask, sure, but I suspect that not even the most ardent slip up now and again. The fact that he made a mistake a didn't wear a mask one time when he should have does not change the fact that the masks help. So because someone doesn't wear a seatbelt once, they should never have to wear one again. You're really looking for a reason to hammer him
I still don't understand why a business has to hire a person specifically for temps. It's not difficult to train someone to take temps. I have cross trained all my staff to do temp checks.
Those that keep fighting this strike me as throwing the baby out with the bath water. If those they oppose don't say or do the exact correct thing 100% of the time, you throw up your hands and say, "See, they don't do it." Kinda childish, IMO.

On your first paragraph: it's not like someone caught him ducking into a donut shop at 6 am. It was a televised public event. If that's a "slip" he's the dumbest politician on earth... a high bar nowadays.
On the second, you don't have to a hire a new person, but you do have to pay someone to do it. Some restaurants can probably have a host do it with no real disruption or extra cost. A lot of other consumer businesses will have to station an extra person at the door when they are already bleeding. I have extremely low confidence in the usefulness of the thermometers anyway, that seems more like safety theater than a serious attempt to impact spread.

The masks and not being able to read lips is killing me as well. On top of bad hearing this past spring my allergies are at an all time worst so the drainage isn't helping. I feel like an idiot when people talk to me and I am like what the hell are you saying?? luckily I just have not been going in anywhere unless I really have to.
So did you get extra cheese on the shoe they cooked for you?Ulrich said:Beckdiesel03 said:

After three repetitions, I mentally flip a coin and say yes or no even if still I don't know what the question is. Who knew that Charlie Brown's teacher is waiting tables in Stone Oak!
