Ct's covid testing positivity rate reached almost 7% yesterday....age group most responsible 20-29...back in the spring when rates were below 2% it was the 50-59 folks ...those young ones still think they're immune..they are in for a rude awakening.........................I don't wish nothing bad on anybody...but just use common sense when you are out there!!!
My sister and family are out there too. Be safe, Tyme!Bob,
7% - That seems quite a bit better than my home county here in Colorado. Try 14.7% positivity. It will get much worse before it'll get better. But like like the government told Lone Watie in the Outlaw Josey Wales, I will endeavor to persevere.

The public wants "the answer" and they want it now, and they want it perfect the first time. In a situation where new information is coming in every week or month, it's really hard for public officials to maintain their credibility while updating ever-evolving guidance.We don’t know what we don’t know. And people who think they have the clear and obvious solution don’t either.
Like I didn’t understand at the beginning that mask wearing could be so demonized for various reasons. I had to see for myself that people don’t like being told what to do. Stupid me.
If you are referring to a face mask..I keep a spare face mask above the visor in the truckor keep one in the car.
That’s a good narrative.The public wants "the answer" and they want it now, and they want it perfect the first time. In a situation where new information is coming in every week or month, it's really hard for public officials to maintain their credibility while updating ever-evolving guidance.
Masks are a great example. Early on, well-meaning scientists proved that only N95 masks actually protected people from infection - anything else just wasn't good enough. So, advice was "don't bother wearing masks". Follow-on research by other well-meaning scientists revealed that wearing a mask would reduce the likelihood of spreading the virus, even if it wasn't perfect. In other words, a mask wouldn't protect a person, but if everyone wore won, it would slow the spread of the infection. Latest research, as of yesterday (literally) is that if everyone wears a mask, infection rates drop by as much as 60%. The public reaction? We've all seen it - resentment, disbelief, generalized grumpiness and growing mistrust of the science and public officials who are doing the best they can with the information they've got. Sad really.
Then I don’t understand how you find yourself outside without one.If you are referring to a face mask..I keep a spare face mask above the visor in the truck
Man, That is WAY HIgh!!!!!.....This has to slow down before things get out of control!!!!...................... Try 14.7% positivity
Found it.and they tax you
You hit the space bar before typing Universal, 1/2 x 20 or 14mm, hmmmmmmmmmYou even have someone show you two pictures that are very much alike and they tax you to find the a minute difference between the two. Here's mine.
The CDC recommendations from last April:
Universal mask policies, social distancing, hand hygiene and social distancing could prevent future lockdowns.
And now President Elect Joe Biden's NEW plan of attack on Covid now that he's president:
Universal mask policies, social distancing, hand hygiene and social distancing could prevent future lockdowns.

@bob, Is that turn 9 on Auto Club Speedway Roval??Well, I can confirm that our local (government) coastal ferry company has a sense of humor.
The transportation regulator has mandated masks on public ferries, so they came up with a mandatory mask sign. A big one. And they're pasted to the walls all over the ships and they look like this:

The "anyone unaware" quote below the headline was from the Ferry Corp's official Twitter account in response to Twitter noise about the new mask design.
You guys in Florida did you ever shut down like we did in cali? It seems to me that Floridians would just say FU...and go fishing.
