what states are yall in, just interested to see what other states are also only doing outdoor dining. my frame of reference is cali and ny/nj, then the south and flyover states seemed like they were all open with indoor dining and whatnotwhen outdoor seating isnt possible because of weather
this times 100, i've been saying that since the shutdowns. i'm like how are you keeping salons/nail shops closed when they can easily limit the number of clients, do contact tracing, and space them, but you reopened retail which is a free for all? same with keeping smaller gyms/fitness studios closed under the same reasoning that you'd keep a big box gym closed, one might have a class of 20 that they can cut down, the other might see 300 people an hour...wtf
On the retail front they are usually in large spaces with a chance to distance or limit capacity.
as long as they are 6 feet apart
the stylist has their mask on. i got my hair and nails done with both of us having masks on. most grooming service shops are small, it's much easier to trace who is visiting and on what day and time than it is to track all the people who are in and out of target, macy's, the big chain grocery stores, etc. proximity is one risk factor, i get it, but so is the number of people you're exposed to, being around 100 untraced people at once (who aren't distanced, i've been at the grocery store and people are all up on each other reaching over one another for produce, freezer items, etc) seems just as risky, if not riskier, as the 2-3 clients a stylist might be in close proximity to over the course of a day.
