    Back on some positive news. UK just had a major announcement and I hope NA follows suit with a similar positive announcement. This is how you roll out how to reopen. Not the trickles of negative news we have been getting the last couple of months even with vaccines rolling out and numbers dropping off.

    That’s interesting.  Many areas in the US have been allowing outdoor sports and places like zoos to be open for a while now.  We actually went to our local zoo over this past weekend.  Gyms, restaurants, etc have been open for a long time with face mask regulations.  Drive in cinemas never closed and was an easy outlet for entertainment during all of this...

    Lots of people catching covid at an outdoor zoo? Science disagrees with you.

    there are plenty of things that can be done safely with right precautious (masking, distancing, etc). Zoos aren’t the problem in the USA. Kinda gets old for people to pretend we should all just be sitting in our homes as it’s the only safe way forward.

    100% agree. Nj just opened up professional sporting events and concerts for fans.  (15%).  Mask up, socially distance and wash your hands.  I don’t see any problem with going to a zoo or going anywhere as long as you are responsible. We went to an old school arcade for my son's bday, we all masked up and kept our distance from other people.  My daughter went ice skating saturday night, everyone had their mask on.

    It gets old maybe because it is old -- that is, it no longer applies to the pandemic as we're currently experiencing it. 

    But everyone should get their heads out of the fucking sand, look around, and reflect upon the simple truth that a large percentage of half a million US citizens are dead because, in aggregate, we absolutely refused to do our part to protect them.

    half a million americans didn't die from masking and distancing outside going for a walk. the science on this one is sound. as long as you are following those protocols, you are at minimal risk outside.

    Bingo.

    It's just frustrating to have people bitching about trump not following science and the medical/science recommendations.  And now, those people don't want to follow science and the medical/science recommendations.

    I couldn't find the exact number in the few moments I have left, but its been reported many times that an overwhelming majority of cases are from indoor private gatherings.  This has nothing to do with going to the zoo. 500,000 people aren't dead because people were enjoying outside and looking at giraffes. Something like 40% of deaths are in nursing homes, pretty sure they're not going to going to outdoor sporting events and the zoo. Anyone who choses to believe that being outside is dangerous is choosing to not follow the science and data.
    Outdoors is fine, as long as you still practice safety procedures.

    That’s interesting.  Many areas in the US have been allowing outdoor sports and places like zoos to be open for a while now.  We actually went to our local zoo over this past weekend.  Gyms, restaurants, etc have been open for a long time with face mask regulations.  Drive in cinemas never closed and was an easy outlet for entertainment during all of this...
    I guess all you guys skipped over this part of the comment. 

    Reading is HARD.

    And 500,000 people didn't die from hanging out in their house for a year.

    Show me data that says gyms and restaurants that enforce face masks and social distancing are causing huge infection numbers.  I’m not talking about bars, but restaurants where they have people spaced out.
    As far as I am aware, most spread was due to family and friends getting together in households for extended periods of time, not wearing masks, etc...

    how is this an example of "reading is hard"? outdoor zoos are not the same, obviously, as indoor gyms or dining. 

    maybe comprehension is hard?

    Exactly. The majority died from being in a nursing home or hanging out in someone else’s house, not their own house, or zoos, or gyms, or restaurants.

    How did those old people get the virus? Or was it just old people getting it and spreading it to old people?

    Maybe people under 55 can't spread the virus? Must have missed that scientific paper.

    Judging by the responses here I can see why 500,000 have died in a year. Might as well just revert back to "it's just the flu".

    Where did I say any of that? 

    And if you paid any attention you would know I'm a big proponent of kids in school during this pandemic. 

    But if anyone is going to take what the US has done during this pandemic as some kind of positive, I'm going to call that out. You guys blew it. The numbers don't lie. That was my point in my initial comment.

    None of this is saying it’s just the flu. Good god why are people so purposely obtuse.

    Yes restaurants have worried me all along. When distanced and decent ventilation they have proven to not be as dangerous as I thought.  Problem was people and places haven’t done that consistently. 

    I’ll agree that my statement didn’t include all the info so not a great statement.

     But the science shows masks and distancing makes places quite safe. So why are people ignoring that?

    If the schools are safe to open...so are small business and gyms..

    Even though schools are not that safe.  They are just a babysitting service anymore...
    Can be and have proven to be pretty damn safe when the protocols are used. But you continue to ignore it

    Why is everything black or white? Why is it stay home and do nothing or don’t even wear a mask at the store?

    Neither side listening to the medical professionals and science. Very sad.
    Where did I say any of that? 

    And if you paid any attention you would know I'm a big proponent of kids in school during this pandemic. 

    But if anyone is going to take what the US has done during this pandemic as some kind of positive, I'm going to call that out. You guys blew it. The numbers don't lie. That was my point in my initial comment.


    Black and white again huh? So if you think some things can be safe (because, you know, the science says it is), then you are saying the US did a good job? Hell no, We screwed the pooch. Mostly cause we ignored the need for masks and distancing by way too many people

    Back on some positive news. UK just had a major announcement and I hope NA follows suit with a similar positive announcement. This is how you roll out how to reopen. Not the trickles of negative news we have been getting the last couple of months even with vaccines rolling out and numbers dropping off.

    That’s interesting.  Many areas in the US have been allowing outdoor sports and places like zoos to be open for a while now.  We actually went to our local zoo over this past weekend.  Gyms, restaurants, etc have been open for a long time with face mask regulations.  Drive in cinemas never closed and was an easy outlet for entertainment during all of this...
    I guess all you guys skipped over this part of the comment. 

    Reading is HARD.

    And 500,000 people didn't die from hanging out in their house for a year.
    how is this an example of "reading is hard"? outdoor zoos are not the same, obviously, as indoor gyms or dining. 

    maybe comprehension is hard?
    I guess you suffer from both then. Keep your chin up, with HARD work and perseverance I believe you will get a handle on all this complicated stuff. I'm rooting for you.
    Yeah all those >55 year olds getting covid at the gym really tipped the scales.
    How did those old people get the virus? Or was it just old people getting it and spreading it to old people?

    Maybe people under 55 can't spread the virus? Must have missed that scientific paper.

    Judging by the responses here I can see why 500,000 have died in a year. Might as well just revert back to "it's just the flu".
    So are you not accepting the fact that the vast majority catch it from private gatherings, and not restaurants or outside activities? Businesses that follow social distancing and other guidelines only account for a small percent of all cases.

    So maybe we are just confusing a few things.
    1) The US really messed this up by not having national standards and not enforcing standards and generally individuals not following proper protocol.  

    2) Separate from that - there seem to be a lot of data to show how to operate in a safe manner in this environment.  

    My question remains - for those that were pissed off at trump and the US response to ignore science...do you know want to follow the science which talks about open schools, opening businesses, how outdoor activities are safe (distancing the key), etc now?  And if not, why?
