Per @Merica: There are large plexiglass barriers between the two podiums in the debate hall, installed "at the recommendation of medical advisors from The Cleveland Clinic, according to Frank Fahrenkopf," the commission chair.

1. I hope it's really big enough.

The ones Kamala and Pence had were too small imo.

9. Agreed! It's not like the virus can only travel in a straight line.

And the commission should have had a legit doc do the mandatiry testing. If either one doesn't have a negative result from that testing, they're barred from entry.

The "debate" should not be cancelled, though. (Face it, they're never actual debates, anyway.) The non-infected candidate should be given all the planned questions, with the other podium shown standing empty.

Why should one candidate lose the opportunity to speak to the nation because the other is a loose cannon spewing deadly airborne particles?

And anyone in the audience who won't keep their mask on should be evicted.

2. Good. That should add to Trump's anger/annoyance.

but hopefully provide a bit more protection to Biden and the moderator.
