Probably everyone knows EXACTLY how to wear a MASK...
NOT a single person I encounter anywhere is wearing correctly, safely.
Get serious people, you are accomplishing SFA!

How to use a mask
Masks can become contaminated on the outside or when touched with hands.

It’s important that masks are used and disposed of properly. If worn incorrectly, you can accidently spread infection instead of preventing it.

Guidance for wearing non-medical masks

What to do

Wash or sanitize your hands:
before putting it on
before taking it off
after taking it off
Inspect the mask, holding it by the ties or loops. Discard if damaged or dirty
Tighten with ties or ear loops to reduce gaps
Keep nose, mouth and chin covered at all times
Remove if wet, torn or dirty and dispose in a lined garbage bin
Store cloth masks in a sealed bag until it can be washed in hot, soapy water

What not to do

Don't touch your face under the mask
Don't touch the front of the mask – remove or adjust using the ties or ear loops
Don't wear it under your nose or your chin
Don't wear a wet, torn or dirty mask
Don’t wear the same mask for a long period of time – change when it becomes damp
Don’t share with another person

How to care for your cloth mask
Store masks in a sealed and clean storage bag and place in a dry area of your home.
Put cloth masks directly into the washing machine or in a bag that can be emptied into the washing machine. Throw out the bag after you’ve used it to store masks.
Launder with other items using a hot cycle, and then dry thoroughly.
Inspect the mask for damage prior to reuse.

Leave the farm once in a while, you will see pretty much business as usual other then key places that cause infections to spread, like bars etc. People, most, are using good sense. No one is hiding in their basement. Once school gets rolling and all the snot noses are in one place it will be interesting to see what happens.

Tweety,

Yep all the necessary businesses are up and running... makes sense if you are needed and adding value you are in demand. Always were and always will be in demand.

The businesses that are not necessary And do not add value are likely very slow and not surprised.

People with skills, who add value and are contributing to economic growth likely not sitting at home collecting CERB.

The basement dwellers who are afraid of COVID and want to just stay in their basement are not the economic drivers and are likely either not needed or can be easily replaced.

Some teachers are willing to teach and do a great job - they are economic drivers; there are others who are a drain on the education system, replace those individuals.

Tweety - I am not stuck out on the back forty with no contact with the outside world. I can think and function within the larger global economy; my world view is not limited to my farm.

I don't suspect you are, but i think the number of people hiding is very small - and if they are they most likely are extremely high risk who are used to hiding and avoiding humans.

Was asked the other day, how many people do you know who lost their job because of covid. Well, very very few, only 1, but that probably had more to do with the price of oil. Many businesses, home exercise equipment, bicycles, local tourism, parks... have been making a killing. Some win big time, some lose. Lots have moved a lot of biz online. The world has changed, office space will most likely downsize, meetings on zoom more often saving huge dollars. People can work from home or anywhere.

People are saving huge dollars not going out spending on "unnecessary" things, houses are being bought/sold like crazy. The stock market hasn't crashed. Food still on the shelves. Interest rates are low. Life is good.

I am pretty sure SK hasn't even touched the first wave. Hopefully that can remain the case till there is a vaccine. Good thing no one wants to go there lol, no int'l airports. Families losing loved ones to Covid is really sad, and if that pain can be avoided, that is a real win. Thumbs up for SK!!
