You WOULD(?) think, but people being the unpredictable sorts that they are - I would NOT put a wager on the side of them doing the RIGHT thing!

Yes !

I guess I am doomed. I drove past the side entrance to the theater in an open golf cart twice today. Didn’t see any lines outside the doors.

And I trust them because people ALWAYS do the logical and RIGHT thing. Just like I ALWAYS trust the other DRIVER to do the correct thing!

Seems like some have to spread baseless paranoia and hysteria.

Florida is one of the worst states in the US for CV cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. TV Land does not REALLY have a plastic bubble around it.

This positive news deserves repeating.
Maybe someday every doctor's office will offer it.

I for one, want to stay the heck away, take no chances regardless to whatever a neighbor on this post has to say...be it a health care worker, doctor or just a strong opinionated person. If someone is actually watching covid positive people leaving this location and shopping etc in the square...good info to know........Not...oh my goodness....good info in my book.

I DID read it and completely understood it. AND, I did not "chastise" I was simply laughing at the naive and simple/single mindedness of the post.
Like I said before, and a well respected poster on here said, those folks are already around you, so what difference does it make WHERE they went for treatment? The theater seems like an excellent choice. It's not being used for entertainment. It's located in an optimal site, and no one needs to be near those being treated even though they might wish to utilize the businesses in the vicinity. Anyone that is worried about those treated persons using businesses around them, must be totally naive to think that those treated are the only possible infected in the area.
If you have been vaccinated, why worry so much? If you are wearing your mask and feel it protects you, then why worry so much? ANSWER: you do not have confidence in the vaccine and/or the paper or cloth masks you insist everyone else wear.

Doesn't matter if you are "vaccinated." You are entitled to your opinion and complain all you wish. No one is required to listen to complaints or even care about such complaints. It is also your opinion that the place of convenience is used for the sole purpose of avarice.
And I completely agree that anyone is "entitled" to complain. Therefore, I wish to complain about those selfish, naive and single minded persons that feel it their obligation to criticize a good thing for the Villages. The same folks that find every means to criticize leadership that makes these good choices that work out for the betterment of our citizens.

Thanks to our Governor and his folks for setting this up. The Villages and surrounding counties will benefit for this.

Once again folks, if you are scared then stay home. The rest of us are enjoying our twilight years and I love it when the streets are not crowded and I can shop without standing in long lines. Even fear benefits some of us........

Sorry buttercup, but let's face it, the Vax and/or mask are not cutting it...hell, there's a veteran poster on here that was in hospital at least 12days. Hopefully he's out and we'll, but he was vaxed.

I dont understand all the sarcasm on these posts. It seems like people get so much joy out of undercutting other posters with sarcasm. Always seems to be older men that get their briefs twisted by something another person says back to them. I know this is very common behavior from young boys, but really shocks me on this site. Who knows, maybe as things don't work right anymore they have to lash out at others in some sort of frustration.
I know one thing, women, in general, prefer a jolly, kind older man.

I’m fully vaccinated with an mRNA vaccine and I will not wear a mask to protect others at this point in time. Anyone who needs protection can wear an N95 mask to protect themselves. I feel very protected with my vaccine and look forward to the booster in October. I have known all along I will not ever protect those who refuse the vaccine for what ever lame excuse they have. Just not going to do it.

how many of them remember the relief when the polio vaccine was announced?

narcissism at its best about invincibility and assuming medical knowledge more than a medical professional. . . .

A friend and his family just came back from Iceland, visiting new volcanoes, etc. There are signs that say "We will not save you if you go off the path! you are on your own." in the US, with such a high regard for life, we are the leader in saving lives, even ones who should not reproduce. . . and will spare no expense in saving everyone. . .

and you wonder why healthcare costs are so expensive, on top of reduced reimbursements, and liability insurance. .

I find fault with the few words, "even ones who should not reproduce" because some of the world's smartest and most productive people have come from lowly poor homes. No one can decide the future potential for any other person. Australia was settled as a prison colony and they are now among the top countries.
