Insanity for sure. They got no business shutting down. Pure insanity and incomprehensible how so many willing people follow blindly along with it. It's the only benefit I have of being real old not to have to be exposed to this level of commie-ism.One must wonder how you would know if you had been around a positive'r when their identities are a closed guarded national secret?
I wear a mask when going into stores, and when at work when not sitting at my desk.
I do not wear it if I am going to be around family members for more than an hour, because at that point the effectiveness is pretty much shot. Therefore I only go around family if I am high temp negative, and have not been around anyone positive tested within a week.
I've been tested twice in 3 months due to possible work exposures, both times negative.
On our worksites they report a positive test among the crew without going into the exact person. We then shut down the work site until everyone comes back negative with at least a rapid test. for those in direct exposure it's two rapid test negatives, or a rapid and a PCR. for those only on the worksite but no proximity it's a rapid test negative.
I get the PCR as well, more for clearing me to hang with my 101 year old grandfather.
We've been shutdown twice, average shutdown duration is 5 work days. Our client is a municipality, so the rules are tighter on their sites than they would be on a private site.
So far we have only had one example of onsite spread, one guy who had it infected the guy who went into the tank with him to do the actual cleaning, but both were mild cases.
Hispanic guys, 30-50, good health.
