Grocery stores see thousands of customers per day.

I don't know how they are managing in Louisiana, but here in Connecticut we have strict rules in the grocery stores. Obviously everyone has to wear a mask. All aisles have been set up and alternating one-way only to help mitigate traffic congestion. There are taped lines on the floor for the space required between those waiting to check out. There is also someone at the door counting those entering and leaving. If a certain threshold is reached, you have to wait outside for someone to leave before you can enter.

Didn't look like any of that was being done at the many marches in excess of 5,000.

I would expect so, yes. *NM* - 08/06/2020 08:00:59 PM 282 Views
That yes is for which question? Or is it for both? *NM* - 08/06/2020 08:23:06 PM 284 Views
The first one. Otherwise I'd have said no and yes. *NM* - 08/06/2020 09:19:48 PM 282 Views

Why are you so invested in either closing down the country or the seriousness of the flu? - 09/06/2020 06:37:24 PM 625 Views
