In reply to the discussion: Coronavirus Culture Shock While Traveling [View all]appleannie1
(5,443 posts)31. The western part of the state was not hit as hard as the eastern part.
Maybe because we do wear masks. My brother and his wife went out to dinner yesterday for their 40th anniversary. The entire wait staff not only wore masks, they wore gloves. Only every other table was being used. There were sanitary wipes as well as napkins at every table. When someone left, the entire table and chairs were wiped down before anyone else was seated there. The menu was on paper and was thrown away when people were done with it and the next customer got a new paper menu. My S I L said she felt safe but they probably will not be eating out again for quite a while. They live in the Pittsburgh area and I live further north.

Everyone is supposed to wear a mask in stores and other indoor public places in Pennsylvania.
