@CVSPharmacy - your female employee with the blonde curly hair was not wearing her mask AT ALL today at the Park Street Owego NY store today at about 5pm. Multiple customers witnessed this in disgust and anger. I suggest you deal with this promptly and strongly. NO EXCUSE!
@NYGovCuomo Can you PLEASE do a live prime-time conference on tv to explain to people the importance of wearing a mask OVER THEIR NOSE? I work at NY's 2nd largest walmart grocery store, and every day I see that about 70% of customers leave nose out. It is truly a life/death thing
@FamousFootwear how long have you been allowing customers to bring pets into the stores? Interesting new policy! Yesterday in the Vestal, NY store someone had their noisy little terrier. My daughter and I had four pairs of shoes ready to purchase but due to allergy to dogs, left.
@BNODesk They need to go out of their way to specify that noses must be covered as well as mouths, then. I work at one 40+ hours a week. 35% or so of them leave their noses out, as do 5-10% of my co-workers.
@AuseklisTK (I assume that's why, because otherwise why wouldn't someone who KNOWS they were tested for coronavirus STILL GO TO WORK in the GROCERY department of all places? It should be mandatory that between being tested and getting a negative result, employees STAY HOME.
@NYGovCuomo Please address Broome county's Walmart grocery department employee testing positive after leaving work on Easter, &Health Dept. Director Rebecca Kaufmann's statement that it's ok b/c the employee had no symptoms &"essential workers can continue working AFTER EXPOSURE"
@AuseklisTK so should have been staying home. we can't get tested here in upstate NY without having confirmed contact with a positive case, and we don't get same day results. This person worked b/c time and a half for working Easter is a lot of money, over $20/hr there right now.
This kind of misinformation from people in a position of power may well be why our statistics for number of deaths vs number of infections in Broome county is so terrible. Because the numbers aren't higher it doesn't stand out against NYC but the RATIO is abysmal.
Then to have the health department director telling people that it's ok because the employee wasn't displaying symptoms despite testing positive, and that exposed essential workers can continue to work as long as we "follow guidelines" is downright criminal.
Seems like if we can't know if we're infected until WAY after we've already been contagious for ~11 days or so, we should at least be wearing gloves and having hand sanitizer stationed at every required-shared-touch location, like registers, time clock, and computers for training
It's the most beautiful day since last September, guess this is the good news I needed. I can go out and enjoy it and do whatever I please, cuz nobody is gonna stop me or try to convince me to care aout other people, around here. "It's not an upstate problem"... really?? REALLY??
@NYGovCuomo Just saw a lady let her toddlers go up& down the post office stairs for 10 min. & holding the railing. Didn't move for a man w/a cane. He had to touch them to grab the railing. They made the PO inaccessible due to 6ft rule. Called Police - they said not their problem.
She said "what I'm telling you is that the post office is the one who has to put up a sign, but I can give you the information to contact someone about violating orders," so GREAT . There's no actual fine, you only will have a sign put up after you leave if you violate orders.
Cop said "well that's not our problem to handle, you'd have to call the post office and ask them to put up a sign." I said "so, Governor Cuomo wants fines issued to people who violate the distancing law he signed. You're saying the post office is in charge of enforcing this law?"
