COVID Public Establishments List? (inspection, restaurants, shop)

[Forever Blue]

Is there some kind of website we can all go to in which keeps track of COVID cases amongst employees at all kind of various establishments (especially eating places & grocery stores) so we can find out & avoid going to those places?

You can find lists of restaurants that were closed due to failing a health inspection (cockroach infestation, etc.) but I don't believe there is any list of establishments where an employee tested positive for Covid. If it was a really significant outbreak, the store/restaurant might decide to close temporary, but otherwise I don't know how you would ever know that, say, a cashier tested positive last week. If this thought gives you a lot of anxiety, you're probably better off getting someone else to shop and pick up food for you.

For how long?


Would you note the location - then check back in two weeks - or just never go again? It's not like the sick person was there the whole time, right? So are worried that they know a contagious individual is STILL at work?


seems highly unlikely.


so you must be worried that some co-worker has it - and doesn't know it - which, of course, is always true, at every place.


Not sure what you hope to get out of this except: If a person is sick - has symptoms - and showed up for work TODAY _ then don't go there today. But most places would be temp. closed in that scenario.

Thanks so far for the comments guys.

Not that I've hardly gone anywhere these past 5 mos...just pretty much

- walking in the park
- drives in which I've stayed in the car 99.9% of the time
- grocery shopping in which I wear a mask, face shield, & sunglasses

For a good 3-4 mos, I only had gotten takeout probably 2xs, but I'm gradually getting takeout a tad more often, so I'd like to know if there's a place I need to stay away from. I go to various grocery stores too. IF I did find out someone testing positive, I probably wouldn't go there again for the next 2 mos or longer to really be safe.

You are doing it right.

And the people who are still going out and working and keeping everything going for you, so that you have food and running water and electricity and medical care and everything else you need....they are doing it wrong?

Nope, unless they are not wearing masks when in public or making/serving food, etc.


In his personal case he was doing things intelligently.

This sounds as if it would be confidential information.

I guess so.
