This fits just fine with a mask.... 

 

And there's a specific exemption for not wearing a mask while eating or drinking. Hmmmm...

I'm having an outpatient procedure done tomorrow at the hospital so they had me go in Tuesday for a covid test.  All I can say is "damn!!!". They put that swab in my nose so far I was expecting to see brain tissue on  it when they pulled it out.

BTW, it came back negative, so at least I didn't have it when they did the test

Latest figures for Shelby County:

4328 active cases. Up 306 from yesterday

208 deaths. Up 7 from yesterday. 

We're a hot spot because most Memphians are just plain stupid.

Pretty sure the rest of the state is too. I will say that since Knox County imposed the mask rule, a vast majority of folks are abiding by it!  That's nice to see.  Sevier County worries me.  There's a lot of folks coming there for vacation and bring Rona with them.

Found out Tuesday evening that my oldest's AAU coach, who works at a shoe store came down with it last week.  His wife found him passeed out in the bedroom Monday and called an ambulance to take him to the hospital.  He was in a bad way, but had improved when I talked to her Tuesday evening.

Good luck with that. Evidently the natives are homebound and restless

Or don’t. I’m in a cranky mood tonight. Though I don’t think anyone will like how it turns out.

Found out that 2 relatives have it. So far no idea where they picked it up, I doubt they wear masks......

Are they sick, or did they just test positive? Hope all is okay.

As of today we have tested just over 1 million Tennesseans with 60,000 positives.

2 of my friends in Knoxville have it. Both in their 20's and otherwise healthy. They said it's not pleasant, similar to the flu. They also have no idea where they got it.

Are they militant mask wearers?

I assume not from their normal attitude. I doubt even sick they will isolate well or wear masks. Not going around them to find out. We normally don't see them much anyway.

Sick, not horrible yet. Doc tested wife when she went in for 'a sinus infection". So positive result made them test husband. In their 50s but not too many health issues. Not hospitalized last I heard.

She's a home care nurse. I'm not sure if they were wearing maks in public or not.

Bet they do now.

I have a friend in Sevier County, that is in the hospital with it. He was diagnosed last week with it, and his wife found him passed out in their bedroom last Monday. He was in ICU for a while, but is doing much better. I didn’t ask if he wore one or not. Wasn’t a concern at the moment. He is still in the hospital.
