How is getting a haircut during the pandemic that much worse than going to the store... lmao. I sometimes forget what board I'm posting on

Not to mention going to the store more frequently than getting a haircut every 2 months?

I finally got a haircut at end of August when CA opened up barbershops. I had previously cut it the day after lockdown started. With cases spiking here again I will just go tomorrow and ride out the winter with no haircut

Do you actually have it? Being exposed isn't a guarantee that you caught it. As long as you wore masks and sanitized your hands properly there's a pretty good chance you're okay.

Get tested. It takes like 10 minutes total. I spent more time driving to the test location one-way than I did taking the test.

The test could show a false negative. He'd need to wait at least a couple days.
IIRC only the antibody test has that problem. The nasal swab does not.

And going to the store means your risk is much higher just due to the amount of people walking around and touching everything before you do. Not to mention the absurdly large amount of people who half-ass wearing masks.

Why are so many people being mean to the TC. While I have not gone to get my hair cut for a while, that is something that isn't that outrageous. We have fellow user that could possibly get a deadly illness and people are crap on him.

How in the hell can this be on of the most supportive sites and one of the meanest .

Have you had a test? It can take about a week to show symptoms and you could be a symptomatic.

Just shows how BS some of these contact tracing guidelines are. We had a football player test positive two days after a game, and up to 40 kids and 4 coaches had to quarantine for two weeks regardless of the outcome of their tests. You know how many positives they had aside from that one kid? Zero. You know how many kids/coaches were allowed back to school? Zero.

thats the weird thing. The nurse that called told me I dont really need to get tested unless I show symptoms.

But I know that I could be asymptotic, and still spread it.

I know that the incubation period is up to 2 weeks, so would it even show up yet? In theory

Im not voluntarily bankrupting myself. Ive barely been able to stay afloat as. 2 weeks without pay would literally take everything from me.

I do not have the luxury of working from home.

If I test positive, thats a different story. Im not going to knowingly infect people.

As you are aware you are asymptomatic you are infact quite possibly infecting people. Self isolate and get a test if it's negative then cool you can stop if it's possible then continue self isolating.

Im confused as to why she told me to wait to get tested. Like the person from the dept of health.

It sounds like it was someone who got there right before/after I left, so hopefully little to no exposure

Pretty sure that's to make sure they get an accurate test. Meanwhile maybe quarantine as best you can/do maximum social distancing in case you do have it
I missed the 'wait for symptoms' post... that is odd.

Stores are typically much more wide open than a barbershop or salon. Covid spreads far more easily in small indoor areas with less ventilation. You're also sitting right next to at least one other person for an extended period of time as opposed to occasionally passing by another person

Wtf does this even mean

The CDC has updated the definition of close contact to "15 minutes of contact at less than 6 feet over a 24 hour period, regardless of face covering." Physical distancing is the safest measure you can take to protect yourself and others.

Maybe this is why she was asking how long I was there.

but are they seriously saying that 15 minutes is the magical infection point? 14 mins and youre good, 16 mins and youre infected? Regardless of face coverings?

Oh cool. So you've decided you don't give a crap about others. How nice.

Im barely able to pay my bills right now as is. I cant afford a day off work, let alone 2 weeks.

Im not going to quarantine unless Im actually sick.

Like I will legit lose my house/car/everything.

Im still wearing my mask constantly at work, still distancing when I can, still taking my temp every morning.

That probably just means they don't have enough tests or testing infrastructure in your area. But they are most likely assuming you are self isolating when they give that recommendation

Either way, I wish ya luck. Hopefully you don't end up being an asymptomatic spreader.

Did they advise you to go around potentially infecting others? People who pull shit like this are (in part) why we've done such a horrible job with the virus.

I asked if I can still work, and she said yes. She advised me not to get tested unless I felt sick.

I told her I do security, cant work from home, etc.

2500 new cases in Ohio today. Fuck me
Don't worry bro. The higher the case numbers, the better the economy. Just think of it like this: the more the virus spreads, the more economic activity behind that spread, right? Which will generate extra wealth.

Then that will trickle down to you in no time, my good man.
