Remarkableriots Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 https://www.cnet.com/news/amazon-made-this-injured-warehouse-worker-sit-10-hours-a-day-doing-nothing/?ftag=CAD-03-10aaj8j Quote Gallagher is on workers' compensation after being injured at his warehouse and has a doctor's order to stay seated at work at all times. He had previously been working a desk job for a nonprofit as part of an Amazon program that lets employees temporarily volunteer in their communities while still getting paid. When coronavirus infections started spiking in March, Gallagher said that program was paused and he was called back to his warehouse. At first blush, money for nothing might sound like a good thing, especially during a recession that's put tens of millions of people out of work. But Gallagher said he was worried that coming into work was endangering his family's health during the pandemic, which has killed more than 110,000 Americans, many of them sick and elderly. Gallagher's father-in-law, who has suffered five heart attacks, has diabetes and uses an oxygen tank most of the day, lives with him. So Gallagher tried repeatedly to get an unpaid leave from work but was twice denied. After he appealed the first denial, he was denied again this past Friday. He was approved for leave on Monday, two hours after CNET contacted Amazon. "I thought it was a great company, until all of this started happening," Gallagher said. "The way they've done all of this, the way they've treated me at this point, you know, this whole process, this makes me see them in a whole different light."

Spork3245 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I’ve been wearing a mask here and there during my home gym workouts to prep for when the actual gyms reopen (to see which works best in terms of being able to breath). Anti-dust masks were near impossible to breath heavily in, cloth-based medical masks were a lot better, however, motorcycle bandanna/face-scarf masks are the best (by far) for workouts IMO: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y5FVJ3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_4At5Eb0DCMQ61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Beijing reimposes lockdown measures after new Covid-19 outbreak (The Guardian) Quote Parts of Beijing have reimposed lockdown measures after a cluster of locally transmitted coronavirus cases emerged nearly two months after the Chinese capital appeared to have stamped out the virus. The outbreak, linked to a major wholesale food market, raised serious questions about the challenges of keeping the disease at bay, even in countries such as China where authoritarian rule allows harsh containment regulations and invasive tracing systems.

That's how this pandemic should be handled everywhere. Sadly, we'll suffer with this for far longer than we need to because few countries are responding in such a manner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anathema- Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 The whole point is to constrict your breathing. If it's easier to breathe in than a basic surgical mask then the protection it's providing is basically nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
