Think of masks like condoms. They help REDUCE your exposure but do not PREVENT your exposure.Good to know the mask wasn’t effective. I was really hoping it was.

I thought (and it looks like others did as well) that was your message here:I didn’t say anywhere there wouldn’t be more cases without masks. Not sure where you read that.

Well, it doesn't say it was a client, but at least one person exposed has tested positive. According to this report:https://www.kmbc.com/article/first-...ield-greene-county-health-department/32712652
So far, only the two stylist have tested positive. No clients have tested positive at this point.

Me too. After the 10 day steroids and IV steroids and breathing treatment to get the asthma attack from the allergies under control it is the first time in MONTHS I am not sneezing and coughing! And I take ZyrtecD daily and flonase daily. When I went to urgent care because I couldn't breathe no one said I should get tested. The county Health department is now in CYA mode saying "there's enough tests, everyone with any symptoms regardless should be tested" etc etc. I can tell you the doctors aren't gonna test unless you've been in contact with known +CV19 person or have multiple symptoms including fever (even though fever doesn't always show up right away even in symptomatic people)I have horrible allergies. This time of year I'm constantly coughing and sneezing. Should I stay home every day? I'd be homeless in short order.
This-and it has been AWFUL here for allergies due to the 5th wettest May on record-I live here. It's been bad.He thinks it just feels really different when you get a respiratory virus. But many people who get sporadic allergies can only figure it out after a few days. I know that I get allergies mainly only in April and May and when they first start I'm like "oh no, am I coming down with something?" Generally after a day or two I can figure it out.
Never ever is there an answer...I think everyone does need some sick days or PTO that they can use. BUT should it be used every time they have a slight cough or the sniffles? When are they going to actually do the job?
Does she have a job NOW that she has put the lives of a 100 + people in danger?
No she doesn't have a job, in fact is in HIDING due to death threats from the remarks our stupid health commisioner made before he knew the FACTS. ALL the chain shops have had to close due to DEATH threats.The salon had to shut down. That mean well stylists are losing lots of workdays.
And of course the 2 sick stylists are having to do without their jobs while under quarantine.
Well the FACT is she went to an MD, gave her ALLERGY medicine and sent her on her way. When she continued to feel worse she went to the health department for a test as instructed to do so-no one in the health department told her to quarantine until results came in-there were signs stating this, but I can easily see how that was overlooked if you are nervous, not used to medical procedures etc. So between all this she did work. The HD personnel should have stressed to her to isolate until tests came back-they didn't.I haven’t but I would guess she is going to lose clients, at the very least.
She may not have been tested at the point she was working but she was working knowing she had symptoms. I think that could be a terminable offense.
Maybe the people are smarter where you live but here at any given moment Id say at least a quarter of the mask wearing population are wearing masks incorrectly
No clientsSo has anyone tested positive from the hairdressers? If the first hairdresser worked for 9 days, that’s enough time for people to start showing symptoms.
Correct. Of course it isn't sensational click bait news so you don't see it splashed all over national news media do you? NOPE. Meanwhile all shops with this chain shut down due to people jumping to conclusions and issuing death threats.https://www.kmbc.com/article/first-...ield-greene-county-health-department/32712652

I wasn't talking about the hairdressers - I was talking about the population of this country. We've had over two months where people were supposed to stay away from each other, only going out to get the basic necessities, and only doing so while maintaining proper distancing, masks, etc. Why is it still out there then? Because people "cheat" - I watch my neighbors hanging out together on each others decks. One house has had a constant stream of visitors. That's the insanity. So many are trying to do this the right way, while others don't give a flying fig and keep the virus going. You know why they talked about flattening the curve? It's because, by our own selfish human nature, we can't stay put when we need to, so there was no way to eradicate. And for all the sacrifices some have made, others don't care and complain about this and that.
But working when they clearly had symptoms (aka were sick). The number one way to stop the spread is to stay home if you are sick.
Not when I worked in jobs that involved face time with customers and handling their food. If I can't keep my bodily fluids inside myself, it's time to keep myself inside.Do you work? Have you seriously never gone to work when you've had a mild cough, or sniffles, a headache etc.?
Update!!! Good News. Nobody was affected.
conclusion: yes Masks!!!!! Make a difference.

This seems like very good news however there was an opportunity here which was somewhat blown IMO. Only about a third of the people were tested, the article didnt say why those were tested (were they showing symptoms). It looks like only one test was performed on each of the third tested. These test have a high false negative rate. I would have rather seen two (better) or three (best) tests performed on every person because we could still have some asymptomatic spreaders in the group on 140 that were exposed.Update!!!
