We bought a Hot tub for our new house about 2 months ago, still waiting for it to be delivered. Pools and Hot Tubs are hard to find and the wait is long. We have the concrete pad already to go once it gets here, hopefully sometime in the next 2 weeks we are told.

All the others were fully vaxxed. Turns out he was sick with the Delta variant, his class and teachers were sent for checks, dozens were positives, teachers who teach in different classes the same, and so it spread to the sports classes, to the afternoon music/art activities, and so on.... It spread like fire. Contact tracing found more and more positives, who were quarantined.... A good friend of ours, 75 years old, fully vaxxed among the first ones, since he still consults at the biggest hospital in Tel Aviv (rheumatology). He is also in the hospital's control group of antibodies. A month ago he had a very good level of them. He is sick with not so mild symptoms for the last 10 days. Cannot tract contact.... His wife is negative. They're the oldest in our group and we didn't saw them for more than an year, since they were more vary of getting out and about.... Sorry to hear your friend is very poorly with Covid19 Dani. Sending prayers 🙏 for a full and speedy recovery for him. Graham. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you come in contact with the virus you will test positive. But you might not necessarily have it, but just test positive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wanted to stop and get a hot dog since several friends go to Costco for their hot dog lunch. I hope they still do food and have the picnic tables available. We have been going thru out the pandemic, just a lot less often. Today was my first time I went in with the early senior (60and above) hours 9: - 10:00. I was eligible in April, but just never bothered. They are ending that on July 26 so I probably won’t make it again. The tables are there, but I’m not sure of the food. The sample people are there advertising the products, but no tastings given out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info. I wonder how many people turn their phones off when they go out and about so they don’t get pinged. If people in the US were tracked like that they would have a cow. Me, I really wouldn’t care. Better safe than spreading it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear the hospitals are running out of room up there. They said the ICU beds are almost full in South Florida. I’m not surprised. 6 hours ago, Ocean Boy said: I think about that, too. I have often thought that I should stop contributing to the issue and become vegetarian. However, I never get any further than thinking about it.😏 Though I have not touched veal in years. It is horrible what happens to baby calfs. The vegetarian thing has also crossed my mind for about a split second. I was telling Mike today with the cost of meat we should cut back some. After your comment about the baby calves I had to google it. Wished I wasn’t so curious sometimes. 😢 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you required to have the app? What about people without smart phones. Here in RI the State developed an app. It went nowhere as people just did not buy into the concept. You know we colonists are a little skeptical of government.😉 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your mobile was "immobile" for a certain period of time, they send someone asking you to wave from the window of your house....😉 "The system" is so sophisticated that we've received a ping that a positive person was in our usual local supermarket.... "They" know we frequent this place due to the credit card charges.... Edited July 19, 2021 by dani negreanu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on another note, you have to do "risk evaluation".... Personally, I prefer to be aware if a positive case was near me/in contact with me, and take appropriate measures ASAP. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
