I had a lucky day a few weeks ago and found Dude Wipes on Amazon.
I was in good shape for the gel version of hand sanitizer, but had nothing else. I was recently able to get 3 packs of 40 wet wipes that are antibacterial, but I was adding hand sanitizer gel to other wipes before, so grabbed the liquid hand sanitizer.

I think more and more people are getting lax. And therefore, I think we have about a two week window before the numbers go up again. Not spiking through the stratosphere like they were a month ago. But I think too many people are not doing what they should. Too many people at the beach: no mask, no social distancing, etc.

Other than to work four days a week… and the grocery store every three weeks I’m not going anywhere.

I’m trying to figure out what to do with my hair because I’m not comfortable going back to the hair salon yet.My hair salon is in Delaware, Wilmington to be specific, which still has too much of a population density for me to feel comfortable going out, especially if I’m not going to be the only customer in the salon at the time. The stylist will have on a mask and I will have one also but I’m still just not comfortable yet.

I'm with you on the groming piece. I'd love a hair cut but don't feel comfortable at all about it. In Missouri, two Covid positive stylists are said to have exposed as many as 140 people over a two week period.

I saw that story…… Crazy. I think I read that one of them went to multiple salons or worked in multiple salons, and went while she was symptomatic

A bunch of stable geniuses on the 700 block of S. Warnock were holding an illegal block party with the street sealed off, no one wearing masks and kids running around.

People who are concerned about such gatherings are focused on ourselves. If their stupidity only resulted their own illness, I wouldn’t care. I’ve learned you cannot protect people from stupid. But this block party has the potential of sending hundreds of infected people out into the community starting today. Not only can they spread the virus wide and far to the rest of us, they risk sending untold numbers into ERs, burdening our already stressed health care workers.

I don’t expect you to understand this, however. You’re the poster who didn’t care to wear a mask unless it matched your shoes.

I saw Repo Records posting a video of them washing the sidewalk, getting ready for opening. Uh, what?

Sorry, wrong forum. Anyway, I was negative and will continue to shelter in place, way past the summer. I'm in Montgomery County.

Nope. My friend, a pharmacist, finally has free antibody testing available to her. I think it is ridiculous that it has taken this long, considering how many people she has to interact with on a daily basis. Anyone working in an essential business that serve the public should have free testing available at this point.
