Covid and Restaurants (a followup)

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 30, 2020

         I SAID SOMETHING IN A COMMENTARY RECENTLY I WANT TO CORRECT. I SAID THERE IS NO EVIDENCE ONE CAN CATCH COVID IN A RESTAURANT. ONE CAN CATCH COVID ANYWHERE, BUT I OBSCURED ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT. POLITICIANS ARE UNILATERALLY SHUTTING DOWN RESTAURANTS THAT ARE PRACTICING THE CDC GUIDELINES. THOSE THAT DO SHOW LITTLE OR NO EVIDENCE OF DINERS CATCHING COVID WHILE EATING THIR MEALS.

         WHAT FRUSTRATES MANY AMERICANS IS THE POLITICIANS- MOSTLY DEMOCRATS – WHO TELL YOU WHAT YOU CAN’T DO WHILE THEY DO THE OPPOSITE. WE HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS EXAMPLES OF THAT BEHAVIOR, NOT ONLY FROM POLITICIANS, BUT SO CALLED SCIENTIFIC EXPERTS, WHO CONTINUE TO DRAW THEIR PAYCHECKS WHILE RESTAURANT EMPLOYEES LOSE THEIR JOBS.

         NOW THAT VACCINES ARE BECOMING AVAILABLE WE ARE HEARING REPORTS THAT PEOPLE MUST STILL COVER THEIR FACES, STAND 6 FEET APART AND WASH THEIR HANDS FREQUENTLY. FOR HOW LONG THEY WON’T SAY.

         MY WIFE OWNS A RESTAURANT IN FLORIDA, WHICH IS OPEN WITH PRECAUTIONS. THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE CASE OF COVID TRACED TO DINERS INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. IT PROVES SHUTTING DOWN ALL RESTAURANTS IS A MISTAKE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
