Midwest is getting shellacked.

1. My county looks good. Soooo. . .still not having our usual t-day gathering.

And our community everyone welcome dinner is cancelled. Have not checked the church and Salvation Army dinners.

[ProfessorGAC]

2. Not Mine!

In the orange, 60-80 category. The county directly to our south is red.
We too, are doing nothing. This year, Thanksgiving is just another Thursday.

3. Avoid large groups of people - duh!

The smaller the group, the less risk of running into the virus.

Also avoid living in North or South Dakota, where you could come in contact with the virus even in small groups.

6. Avoid small groups too. Adhere to social distancing.

i would not play Russian Roulette no matter how small the odds.

4. I'm so glad Florida has improved

We literally don’t have any high percentage. Still no thanksgiving.

8. I think it might be the weather

South Texas has been hot and muggy with no "winter" insight.

10. True. Although yesterday I had a light sweatshirt on at 72 degrees.

It was chilly not cold.

5. Almost the entire upper mid west is a disaster area...did they not practice safe CV procedures?

Yikes. I guess they all have one person to thank, eh?

It does seem somewhat familiar to the standard cold fronts that come in across the upper mid west...

7. Not in the Rural areas.

Pure ugly.

[SWBTATTReg]

13. A shame really. My sister who believes in masks and safety, is in the middle of all of this...

I admire her so much.

15. Have a Daughter on the front lines in Denver,

and have a niece in South West Minnesota that has her Father in a Nursing Facility because of health issues that require 24/7 care. And she is not allowed to interact with him only by Phone due to several Staffers testing positive for covid. The persons who tested positive refused to wear masks when not at work and still interacting with people in her small town.

[SWBTATTReg]

16. My best to you and your family during these times...one day, this shall go away, but until then,

why not be safe instead of sorry? I don't get 'it' sometimes, some people seem to think that they are being slighted or are having some vague notion of 'freedoms' being taken away w/ the wearing of masks, etc. Since when did the wearing of masks become such a taboo item? No body thought about this when in the 'old days', a cancer patient or such wore a mask...

rump, our PINO really screwed a lot of people over with his nonsense, and more are yet to die still over the next several months...

[Wellstone ruled]

17. Thanks,

the situation is not good,but,we will make it . Niece's Father will be 85 new years eve day and does suffer from early onset Dementia which requires Meds and supervision. And yes,yesterday one of the Staff that tested Positive was interacting with local Business's as per the Niece.

Friggin idiot. No mask,I got a right.

9. My area

Is in the lowest category. Its also going to be just warm enough for us to host Thanksgiving on the lawn this year.

[Rice4VP]

11. Great. I'm going to NYC...looks safe

[Hermit-The-Prog]

12. Staying home.

[Ace Rothstein]

14. I'm in one of those really dark counties south of Chicago.

It is a mess here.
