How is everyone doing?
My county, my town in particular, has had a boom in cases. We had previously been seeing like one or two new cases every few days; last week there were 30 some new cases and over the weekend 29 more were confirmed. Much of it is tied to the bars being open and packed, but apparently there was also a worker at Hobby Lobby who tested positive and just kept coming to work anyway. I think they had a similar problem at a local restaurant, which is troublesome as that restaurant in particular is small and often packed.
It's a bummer. I went out for a dinner with my friends on Tuesday of last week - we ate on the patio, and the restaurant we went to was really good about wearing masks and having the tables spread apart. But now I've gone back into hiding and probably won't be out for awhile. My friends actually went to the restaurant mentioned above that has had a boom in cases after we got done with dinner, but as my dog recently had surgery I had to get back home to him and couldn't come with (whew).
My friends are pretty split on whether or not they are concerned. My friend in SD works at a coffee shop and has had a terrible time getting the other employees there to wear masks or clean surfaces. About a week ago she came down with a high fever and was tested but it was (thankfully) negative. She's taking it very seriously; but I have other friends who are frequently going to restaurants and bars and one even few to PA over the weekend. It's interesting.
