Oh good. That sounds better than trying to stick a long swab up my nose into my throat.
My 27 yr old daughter and her boyfriend came into our back yard about a week ago so we could 'visit' from afar. We had our patio furniture all spread out, and we sat and talked with each other, with our masks on, for about 45 minutes. It was really nice.
I think it has and will make a difference but I'm not sure to what degree. Too many variables IMO.
Texas Fishing Virus News - Yes to the using a cage trap from a pier or dock for me for blue crabs, etc. I bait it with raw chicken legs...... Fishing is and has been OK in Texas( I have no idea about any other states rules except Arkansas....OK there too with social distancing) during all this Virus time. Social distancing is desired. No problem for me, as my wife or kids and son-in-laws are the only fishing partners I will fish with at any time ......I will go fishing with otto someday in Canada, if he will just smuggle me across the border.......moo
Nope.
I have also read that the more social animals in zoos seem to be looking for us. They are used to interacting with the public and may miss it. They will need extra enrichment activities.

Some 70,000 animals across Indonesia are at risk of starvation as zoos struggle financially due to social distancing restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic.
A survey released by the Indonesian Zoo Association concluded that 92 per cent of its member zoos on the islands of Java, Bali, Sumatra, Lombok and Borneo had only enough supplies to feed their animals until mid-May.
Some 60 animal parks across the archipelago attract around 50 million visitors each year but, with most of them closed since mid-March, the body warned that thousands of animals are at risk, including endangered Sumatran tigers and Bornean orangutans.

"Not all zoos receive money from the government. Some are privately owned and rely on the revenue from ticket sales," said Indonesian Zoo Association spokesman Sulhan Syafi'i, as quoted by the Jakarta Post.
I’m not sure what you mean that purchasing the field hospital “begs a whole “nother set of questions” though. What questions do you have?
I will make sure we’re both in masks. I will probably stay farther away than 8 feet, even. She is my world, so I’m really protective of her. I hope the chickens won’t be ornery and will be easily caught by her so she can hold them. I usually grab them and hand them to her. (She also has my login for our security camera so she can watch the chickens from her apartment. But she likes to interact with them.)
Yes, Plexiglass especially does make a big difference. There are a lot of essential workers who are behind plexiglass, wearing masks, and have done business with hundreds of customers without getting the virus. Seems like it sometimes works wonders.
I can totally believe that seniors would adore chickens.
