Oh I know. I'm saying with how things are looking at this very moment in time, it's hard for me to believe all of those people would be allowed to gather you know? I agree 4.5 months is a long time and we could be in a very different position then. I really really hope we are, because that means sports are back up and running.
Well I have no idea about all of the info, but, the guy who asked the question worded it that there is indeed going to be 100+ people there. Her response was that she knows there is technology in place in order to help reduce the size of these events, but they are an essential business as well so she encourages they practice social distancing.
Not saying I condone this, but if it's still bad in 4.5 months, it will be survival of the fittest. There is no way the powers at be will keep things locked down for that long.
Mad Max here we come

Well I'm not saying businesses won't be open and the economy won't be running, I was just talking about crowd sizes.. What does the fair bring in per day? 10's of thousands of people right?
having the fair even on a decline sounds like a recipe for disaster...Iowa would have to be almost in the clear for that to happen. Work will be back by then but an event the size of the fair.....we'll see.
This goes to a pdf file "Auction Market Guidance during COVID-19 from IDPH, dated 3-23-20 https://www.google.com/url?client=i...FjACegQIBxAC&usg=AOvVaw36IwtuW3NkYK66yv18QFL9
I think they honestly have about another month of people's attention before people give up on social distancing. Much like you--not condoning it, but I think the reality is healthy people are going to say screw this before too much longer.
You would need to take every cop, federal agent, and service member, add them up and then multiply by 50 for that to even work. The cost of that would be unimaginable.
I haven't seen a noticeable difference in people out and about, but is is weird seeing empty parking lots of bars, restaurants, and clothing stores.
Really? I think social distancing is extremely easy and I could do this almost indefinitely.
I will say it hasn't been as big of a change as I would have thought. Realizing I see about the same 10 people every day as it is.
Yeah I unfortunately agree as well. Those that are healthy are going to get sick and tired of not being able to do what they want to do and are going to go back to their normal ways.
Not going to ISU FB or BB games, or concerts, or restaurants, or movies, or my races would not be easy for me indefinitely. I mean quite frankly I am getting frustrated that my races are being cancelled now (I know it's needed, but still frustrating when you build up all winter for the season).
Not to mention things such as weddings, funerals, bday parties and such.
I can tell you my office is getting there. Especially with planting coming potentially next week, I really don’t care anymore.
I feel like in the future, you're going to have to sign a waiver to get into most large events so you can't come back and sue them for catching this thing.
They'll just add it to the disclaimer on the back of your ticket.
I will say the first few games I go to or whatever are going to feel weird
