A very good question. Setting up a "door policy?" Besides insuring they have masks for all of their employees, to also have an adequate supply to have at their entrances so they can offer a mask to those foolish enough to walk up without one? I wouldn't think that it would take two weeks, since their employees should already be wearing masks at all times while at work. Seems a bit odd, but it's all I can think of.
You go POP!! July 16, 2020 - 01:46 PM EDT Spurs coach Gregg Popovich calls Texas leaders 'cowards' over handling of coronavirus https://thehill.com/homenews/state-...ch-slams-coward-texas-leaders-for-handling-of
Whether you love or hate Popovich, he is always transparent and insightful when speaking on social issues.
It does take time to implement such a policy across a nationwide retail chain like Target, but two weeks is way too long of a delay. That’s enough time for anti-maskers to infect many people.
EXCLUSIVE: WHITE HOUSE DOCUMENT SHOWS 18 STATES IN CORONAVIRUS “RED ZONE” Unpublicized recommendations say states should return to stringent control measures INTRODUCTION This article is available for republishing. We ask that you credit our newsroom at the top with a line that says, “This article about the coronavirus red zone was originally published by the Center for Public Integrity, a nonprofit newsroom based in Washington, D.C.” and link to our homepage. Photo rights not included. A document prepared for the White House Coronavirus Task Force but not publicized suggests more than a dozen states should revert to more stringent protective measures, limiting social gatherings to 10 people or fewer, closing bars and gyms and asking residents to wear masks at all times. The document, dated July 14 and obtained by the Center for Public Integrity, says 18 states are in the “red zone” for COVID-19 cases, meaning they had more than 100 new cases per 100,000 population last week. Eleven states are in the “red zone” for test positivity, meaning more than 10 percent of diagnostic test results came back positive. Dr. Deborah Birx, a leader of the task force, referenced an earlier version of what appears to be the same report — which she said was updated weekly and sent to governors — in a press conference July 8 in which Vice President Mike Pence urged local leaders to open schools in the fall. She said Arizona, California, Florida and Texas were among the states the task force was monitoring carefully and that “a series of other states” were also in the red zone and should consider limiting gatherings. It’s clear some states are not following the task force’s advice. For instance, the document recommends that Georgia, in the red zone for both cases and test positivity, “mandate statewide wearing of cloth face coverings outside the home.” But Gov. Brian Kemp signed an order Wednesday banning localities from requiring masks. The 18 states that are included in the red zone for cases in the document are: Alabama Louisiana Arkansas Mississippi Arizona North Carolina California Nevada Florida Oklahoma Georgia South Carolina Idaho Tennessee Iowa Texas Kansas Utah The 11 states that are in the red zone for test positivity are: Alabama Mississippi Arizona Nevada Florida South Carolina Georgia Texas Idaho Washington Louisiana In May, the World Health Organization recommended that governments make sure test positivity rates were at 5 percent or lower for 14 days before reopening. A COVID-19 tracker from Johns Hopkins University shows that 33 states were above that recommended positivity as of July 16. “If the test positivity rate is above 10 percent, that means we’re not doing a good job mitigating the outbreak,” said Jessica Malaty Rivera, science communication lead at the COVID Tracking Project, a volunteer organization launched by journalists from The Atlantic. “Ideally we want the test positivity rate to be below 3 percent, because that shows that we’re suppressing COVID-19.” The White House and Kemp did not respond to requests for comment Thursday. https://publicintegrity.org/health/...s-18-states-in-coronavirus-red-zone-covid-19/

I admit I feel bad for people like this and especially for the people who were denying it but have died. It's a harsh lesson and it's sad that it takes this disease affecting them personally for them to realize that this is very real..
Dallas and San Antonio are now using refridgerated trucks to store the dead.. still no lockdown Still no mask wearing mandate. Was there any other country or area in the world that it reached that point and there were so little measures taken?
I agree. I think the problem with those still denying the seriousness of this will keep their stance as long as the ones dying aren't their family members.
We live in the era of information. There was not limited access to what is happening. Everyone can read and watch..the videos the proof the evidence of the devastation and the corpses. I dont feel bad at all if someone who has the world in their fingertips, still chooses to bury their head in the sand and ENDANGER also the rest of society with their behaviour. Do you feel sorry for someone who drives drunk because they dont believe in the intoxication of alcohol? No. You just feel sorry if they crash and kill an innocent person.
