I presume that this is for the USA only ? Can't understand about giving it to a fire crew
.
Here the Fire Dept is the one who goes on Medical calls they have an ambulance along too.
Many Nursing homes or Assisted living condos say the best thing is to have all info on the FRIDGE, and that is where they look. Things like DNR, names/numbers just don't have a ton of pics and crap on the fridge
People need to look at HOW the spread started a bit differently.... By the time that China KNEW <-- key word here, there was a Virus there were people infected that left the area. yeah Yeah, China blew it by keeping it secret for a while.
Just think about 2 people leaving the 'infected area' before it was known, going on a plane, both infected and touched the doors, railings, handles and seats as they walked in/by before boarding and after. Then say out of 200 on that plane, 100 were in contact with that spot and then carried the infection with Them. Now put them on at least 1-2 other planes to get to their destination and all the things they touched. Don't forget the SOLES of the SHOES and how it is now carried all over, even if they keep their hands to themselves. Think of how you take off your shoes and kids playing on the floor (yeah gross, and I cringe when I see that in public places gross).
Now draw a mental map of the spread..... it was going to happen no matter what. Remember they are saying that this stays on surfaces for DAYS and in the air for longer then the Flu.
Now if China was a bit more forthcoming and ALL the countries jumped on keeping people home, then we might be in a 'better' place. But then again see above in my 1st two sentences.
When my Restaurant closed on March 17th they all thought we would be closed for 2 weeks. I told them no, you won't , not sure if I said it here or on someones PM that I was talking about it. It will be Months before Restaurants open and then when they do no one will be going for 2 reasons. 1) no one has the Extra money to waste on that luxury (even small $ is still a luxury) when you have bills that can't be paid. 2) Most people know that employees of restaurants 'usually' work pay- pay and go to work even if they are sick..... ummm no thanks not on my food. If you didn't know that, let me tell you they do, servers and food prep. They don't have a choice and the bosses don't care so long as they can get the food out and customers are happy.
If you are out of work, Please look at your finances and PLAN to be super lean for a long while. As much as I would love to help Small Biz, I can't because, well I have to put food on the table for the family and pay the bills. Just like everyone else.
Oh and just so you know, Cheesecake Factory always says they are 'For the Employee'--- they are NOT so just keep that in mind when you are deciding on where to spend your money in the future. There are a LOT of employees that will no longer work for them because of this. They also own Grand Lux Cafe, RockSugar Southeast Asian Kitchen, North Italia & Flower Child.
Darden Restaurants are at least paying 1/2 of employees average paychecks to them for the next 3 week. They own : Eddie V's Prime Seafood, The Capital Grille, Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse, Bahama Breeze, Seasons 52, Yard House and Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen.
HOW well companies treat their employees in this pandemic is who I will be doing my Future shopping/business with, just my opinion
Wow, sorry that was super long, too much coffee I think lol
