Indiana - Coronavirus COVID-19

[IceIce9]

That's kinda scary. And I don't scare too easily. Jmo

My family loves amusement parks but the idea of going to one now is just crazy to us. Are they really going to sanitize every horse on the merry-go-round, every roller coaster seat, every inch of the giant slide, every swing, etc. every single time someone sits in it? Not to mention all the mazes and handrails and turnstyles, the restrooms, etc. Yikes!!

I don't see how they could. Maybe they'll surprise us all. I know it's a very well kept park normally. It still scares me, and I'm all renegade happy to be back working. I mean economically I'm trying to figure out how it will work. They'll need extra employees to clean and disinfect. But less patrons. And extra extra cleaning supplies. Jmo

I hope they can make it work, for their sake as well as the employees.

We’ve gone there often and it truly is the cleanest park, and not as busy as most amusement parks.

If the guests in line for the roller coasters at Cedar Point are spaces 6 feet apart, the lines would stretch from one end of the park to the other.

I was working in a local Kroger affiliate today. I was a bit surprised at the employees who had their mask pulled down under their nose or very safely protecting their chin only. Jmo

And same thing I've noticed elsewhere. About 50% of the masks get pulled down in stockrooms, out of public eye.

University of Notre Dame President Says Fall Semester Will End Before Thanksgiving So Students Won't Bring 'Pathogens' Back To Campus

While the University of Notre Dame plans on reopening its campus in the fall, the semester will look quite different compared to years past. Extensive testing, social distancing measures and a shortened semester are all apart of the university’s plan to reopen, the university’s president Father John Jenkins said in an interview with the TODAY Show Tuesday morning.

Jenkins told TODAY Show host Savannah Guthrie that he believes the university can reach its goal of reopening by August. He said that while he “doesn’t have all the details yet,” he believes that with a “robust plan” the school will be able to keep students safe. On Monday, Notre Dame became one of the first major U.S. universities to announce that it would resume in-person classes in the fall after the coronavirus pandemic unexpectedly closed campuses around the world...

The president of the University of Notre Dame has tested positive for the novel coronavirus, school officials announced Friday. The announcement came several days after he attended a White House ceremony.

The Rev. John I. Jenkins had been self-isolating on campus after the Sept. 26 event announcing Judge Amy Coney Barrett, a Notre Dame alumna, as President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee. Jenkins had been criticized by students for not wearing a mask or following other public-health protocols at the event, and expressed regret to campus earlier this week.

Jenkins was the latest prominent leader to announce an infection Friday, a day that began with the revelation that Trump and first lady Melania Trump had tested positive...
