I can see a problem with a high rise condo or apt building.  We have two elevators here, but only 16 floors, 3 of which are parking.  We're supposed to be only two on an elevator, or one family group.  That means you can wait a bit, if you abide by the rules.  Most folks ask, and if you're masked they let you on.

I we lived in a 40 story building like the ones next to us, that becomes a problem even with more elevators.

Older children being age 10+
That's fifth graders, so all K-5 schools' adults at jeopardy.  Many, if not most elementary schools here in Phoenix are K-8. 
Here's an idea....let's re-open and then lock-down all of the following and give them gov't assistance and unlimited delivery supplies from amazon/uber eats so they don't have to leave their homes/dwellings.

Let's lock-down everyone 65 or older. Make them sign waivers if they wish to leave and risk getting Corona.

Then let's lock-down the very sick and immune-compromised. Make them sign waivers if they wish to leave their lock-down and risk getting Corona.

Then let's lock-down all the super-fat, disgusting obese people with diabetes or heart-conditions which they wrought upon themselves by being disgusting fat slobs. Make them sign waivers if they wish to leave their lock-down and risk getting Corona.


Problem solved. Children aren't dying from this. The young and the moderately healthy aren't dying from this. It's pretty much only the above mentioned. BOOM.

I don't have any special memory of the 2009-2010 H1N1 flu thing, does anyone here?

https://www.wfla.com/news/by-the-numbers/coronavirus-vs-flu-how-deaths-number-of-cases-compare/

During the 2019-2020 flu season in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that between 39 million and 56 million people contracted the flu.

Total coronavirus patients in the United States currently total more than 2.5 million, the most reported cases in the world. Brazil had second-most with 1.3 million reported cases.

According to the CDC, the hospitalization rate in the U.S. for flu this season is about 69 hospitalizations per 100,000 people. The overall coronavirus hospitalization rate is 98.4 per 100,000 people.

At some point, we have to rely on the good sense of people to behave sensibly, which of course isn't going to work in all cases.  But, the crazy folks make the news, not the folks exercising good sense.

I don't think we can realistically shut down again for long enough to really break this thing.  As a state reopens, it starts again.

I've got an employee down right now, because he decided to have a party on July 4. Busiest time of year for us, and we're down a field tech. Dumbass.

We've had managers bring in their teams for in person training and dismiss every rule put in place around social distancing, wearing masks, etc...  In several cases they did not have approvals to come into the office at all.   The term 'career limiting move' comes to mind...

We sometimes refer to those type of things as "resume-generating events."

Hope it doesn't require someone dying.

She's on it.

Anyway, the doubling rate for Florida has gone from 15.2 days to 18.6 in the past week, and the positivity rate has dropped for the past 2 weeks. New cases are flattening. Hospitalizations are coming down too. 

This is good news (except for the ones who have died for discharge). 

My zip code has 44 cases. My neighborhood has none.

Reported new cases in GA MAY be leveling off after a marked rise.  Hospitalizations continues to go higher, we're running out, and if this sustains AND flu season hits ....
