If the 6' recommended spacing isn't possible, face coverings can be worn. If two people are talking, and one is infected, but they both have their faces covered, the chances of the 2nd person becoming infected is reduced to something like 2%.
Ok, now we’re rolling. So you expect to flip on an NFL game in September 2021 and see a crowd full of people in masks?
No. I don't. Because I don't think that many people are chomping at the bit to be in a crowded venue.
I don't know about where you are, but our schools have been closed for the year, and for that, I'm grateful.
We can't possibly know where we'll be in September until we know more about actual infection rates, immunity, etc. etc.
We are talking about the future. In the future.

I’m talking about 2021.
Students need to be in classrooms this August it would be a travesty for “homeschooling for the masses” to continue.
Sending you healing thoughts and a speedy recovery.
Schools are the least likely place for any kind of physical distancing measures to be successful - kids just don't have the ability to grasp how important these measures are. I'm praying we have multiple effective treatments by September, otherwise, I may seriously look into homeschooling, as much as I hate it. We have too many family members who are high risk to take a chance at infecting them, including my husband.

Never have I said that restaurants should be forced to close. Why do people when responding to a post say things that aren’t said?
I think we might see acceptance for masks. Not necessarily mandatory as we should learn more about how SARS-CoV-2 attacks the body with time, but at least when people are not feeling their best and not just dismissing everything as "just a cold" or "just allergies." This may also finally relax sick policies that were effectively relaxed for swine flu and then immediately undone despite their efficacy. I still think it might be a decent time to invest in companies that sell automatic door openers.
1. No it won’t
Maybe you're not reading my post? I said "it seems" and I genuinely asked you a question. I certainly wasn't trying to misquote you. As for your current post, as a business owner I'm not sure what "government assistance" a shuttered restaurant would receiving. Could you clarify? If opened, a business would be generating some revenue. 80% of something is infinitely more than 100% of nothing
I'm hopeful classes will resume in August with medical professionals having a better understanding of what will be necessary to keep everyone safe. At the same time reality is teen kids don't keep from holding hands, kissing thier other halves at school while younger ones are still learning their self control. It'd be the same issues with a bigger concern than "breaking a school rule".
