To the anti-mask crowd, one person wearing a mask testing positive validates them. 

The flip side is this. I read a story about an infected person attending church in Ohio. As a result of this one infected person attending church, 91 other people were infected within a couple of weeks. 53 of those were at the service with the infected man and then the rest of the cases came from those people spreading it to others. There is no way of knowing how many of those cases would have been prevented by mask wearing but I am sure there would have been many fewer cases if everyone wore masks.

And the follow up is we all know we should not smoke because of the high risk. Likewise we all should be wearing masks because of the high risk of infection. Masks are not 100% effective but if they are just 50% effective we all should wear them. 

Using that logic we all should be wearing goggles.

Big change for the state fair, only participants will be able to attend. No midway, no food vendors.

When I start spraying droplets from my eyes when talking or sneezing, I will look further into that.

39 new cases reported in Ft. Mitchell in the last 14 days. 3 residents hospitalized. 1 resident on ventilator. 9 cases out of one business and 14 total cases from businesses.

What was the business?

Any word on mask usage by the people testing positive?

If we were told the whole truth I am sure a bunch of hard core mask wearers are testing positive for COVID. 

The people I know (Including my son) were in familiar social circles and did not wear masks. One major exposure was at a wedding, another was around a friend’s asymptomatic young children, and the third was definitely out socializing without a mask.  One of those is on a ventilator.

Not sure of the numbers, but I do know that several cases were traced to Ft. Mitchell Country Club.

Is the pool open at the country club, dining?  Or is it just golf right now?

All were open.  The dining room was shut down for a few days after some employees tested positive.  I don’t know where/how members were exposed, but heard that some members were also positive.

Numbers are dropping on week over week measurements. Only two states trending up with 8 states at a plateau and the rest dropping. New cases dropped 12.6% nationwide from the previous week. For the first since March the number of people tested is down.
