health inspections are needed for covid-19 safety protocols
How I would score grocery store employees in one store today preparing for opening other businesses?- An employee was asked where his mask was(10 for the supervisor, 0 for the employee), he said he forgot to put it back on after working in the back. So, they take them off for hard duties, shipment receiving because it is difficult to breathe. I get that but it still needs to be remedied. He was doing produce(0). Another employee wiping handles of freezer cases, then opening and closing each successive one with his contaminated hand that wasn't decontaminated after touching contaminated handle. He needs instruction on maintenance. Multiple employees wearing masks below their noses. I'd give the whole store a 0 for this problem. Cashier sanitizing gloved hands after each customer(10). Another employee going on break, sitting on a bench outside, taking off mask by gripping the face cover, texting and smoking. Smart phone is now contaminated, mask is now contaminated, bench and smoking alone has made her a super spreader. I know how to decontaminate when leaving. However, the most vulnerable are the employees who have no insurance as with most part time workers. Therein lies the economic catastrophe. A test blitz is great, a television, web and radio programs blitz on how to prevent germ contamination is needed as we go forward to opening the economy. We (Arizona) are not ready. People do not understand the basics of infection control and the countermeasures necessary. It is up to state health departments to train the public.
