    “Mask use, temperature checks, and symptom screenings were required on entry; however, patrons were allowed to remove masks during exercise.” Pandemic theater. Temp checks at entry but maskless huffing and puffing indoors. Don’t blame the people, blame the rules that allow this.https://twitter.com/linseymarr/status/1364661446995542016 …

        “Twenty-two (40%) attendees with COVID-19 attended on or after the day of symptom onset.” Can I also blame the people some?

        Exactly - people must take some responsibility. You don’t blame the car for a vehicular hit and run.

        eh, i’ll blame both. we’re a year into this. people should understand the risks of standing in a room full of maskless people, regardlessof the theater played to pretend it’s safe.

        sorry, it looks like this was in august. so they were six months into the pandemic, not a year. still not blameless, we had all the information we needed back in august.

        Not to mention most temp checks are useless as you're most contagious before you start showing symptoms 🙄

        Predictable that all of these scenarios were in fitness classes. I wonder how the risk would compare to people who go to the gym just to hit the eliptical or lift weights on their own.

        It’s amazing how no one actually talks about this. It almost seems like fitness isn’t a priority that we should try to accommodate wherever we can using harm reduction principles?
