He has absolutely no clue what's going on.
He can't even get testing straight after 6 months.

If the vaccine rollout looks anything like the testing situation in many places, we'll get the country vaccinated by 2025.
I tried to get a test today due to some mild symptoms but no dice.
My doctor couldn't get a test scheduled in office until Friday.
Ditto for the 4 urgent care centers that I tried which offer "walk-in" "no apt needed". Apparently you " walk-in" after you schedule a virtual appt with one of their "doctors" and then your assigned a slot to "walk-in" "no appointment required" after you go through that. The earliest they have available is Thursday afternoon....
Way to go Charlie....

One simple model I've seen work for medium size sukkas (10*12), standard tarp fixed on one side and rolled on a pipe across the schach (flat). Then pull it tight using bungie cords. Then use a paint roller extension rod with a rubber foot on end and a tennis ball on the other to prop up the already taut tarp to creat a slope.
This has worked successfully for several years and I intend to try it this year on a much larger sukka (16*16).

At the very basic level, insist on or at least promote mask wearing. Pretty sure there's close to a medical consensus that it would help stop the spread

« on: September 10, 2020, 01:41:36 PM »No, I am asking what you feel should have been done to deal with it.hm...first listen to the experts around you. Presumably that's why you have experts. Not just to agree with you.
I'm not quite sure.. but that's why he gets paid the big bucks and travels in $2000 per minute travel system...
