County Health Dept After the Mo Club

I don't have boots on the ground in Missoula, so I can't really speak to what it's like there during all of this. I will say, however, that the most surprising thing I learned is that there were bars/restaurants not requiring patrons and STAFF to wear masks. It's been so long since I've seen a food server without a mask, I can't picture it. I forgot what it looks like.

I'd buy you beers at both places! I'm always at both depending where the brawl is. Unless there was a huge riot in either place or a plague or anything else I deemed way too dangerous. If that was the case I'd just go somewhere else where I felt safer. Or even, "gasp", just stay home where I always feel SUPER safe! :thumb:

Wait... The Cats Paw is still a thing? I stopped going when they turned 75% of it into Keno machines... Last time I was in the Mo Club was with My wife (then girlfriend). Wore all by Bobcat gear, and not one person said a WORD to me about it (could have been because I was with Thatcher Szalay and the starting RB for the griz those years, can't remember his name for some reason)

It is! And you're right, tons of machines. Can't blame them as those things likely make them more money than their kitchen and bar combined. But not for everyone. These days it's a little more my speed than the packed debacles downtown! Truthfully, in my age I'm more of a dinner and wine kind of a guy after the Brawl.... :eek:

I am with you there. Wife and I ended up at Nordic after last years CAT/griz game. I stay away from downtown most of the time... I did go the the new 9th floor bar at the Armory Hotel last weekend.

I agree. I've been out and about a ton and I can't recall ever seeing bartenders or servers not wearing masks. Here and there I'll see one pull it down in order to communicate a bit better but then right back on.

Patrons are required to wear it from door to table or when using the bathroom which is asinine....but it's the rule. And hey, if it makes someone feel a tad safer when I mask up to use the head, I'll comply. :thumb:

True. Plus, as one with a weak stomach, wearing a mask in public restrooms has been a delight. I might continue doing so indefinitely. :D

Found a restaurant in Kalispell last weekend where no one (staff nor customers) were wearing a mask. Pretty surreal given what we've experienced in Missoula and no wonder the Flathead is a hot spot.
 
According to CDC:
If you want to catch covid, wear a cloth mask (70.6%)
If you want the least chance of catching covid, don't wear a mask at all.

See the chart on page 4. I ain't making this up.

What if I don't really care and I just want restaurants to stay open? Mask, or nah?

you are conveniently ignoring the fact that montana's rate of infection is going up, up, up, something which you ignore in order to continually pursue your minimizing of the whole issue
Are rates of hospitalizations and deaths going "up, up, up?"

powered by the anti-mask selfish idiocy, gotten worse, not better. the u.s. needs to either enforce mask and other rules
Is there convincing evidence that the use of masks actually help? Do they block airborne transmission of the virus?

NO! ..the bullsh*t needs to stop and we need to get back to normal! ....think of how many lives have been destroy financially
...the young never should have been quarantine ..the old and compromise could have used caution...years from now we will
look back at this and realize the fraud this has been! .........99.5 percent under 70 years survive..99.98 under 50 years..come
on folks!
 
Here in NM our new cases have seen a huge spike, despite the fact that everyone has been wearing masks in public for months and months and months. I'll believe that masks really work when someone can prove it with actual scientific studies.
 
Everyone is missing the point of wearing a mask: It's not to protect you from others, it's to protect others from you, in case you're an asymptomatic carrier. You question how you could be such a carrier? Well, how do you know those not wearing a mask who you've been with were not asymptomatic carriers, also? And how do they know they're not, etc. That's how this thing spreads: ignorance.

.5% of Americans under 70 dead is more than 1.5 million people.

NIck Saban and Alabama AD have tested positive.

Also, Trump's kid earlier. He's over it already

yeah, he got over it with treatments you aren't anywhere near important enough to receive. or maybe not. who knows? did he even have it? was it much worse than we were told, and he was on death's door? duck for cover, greenie, duck... under the golden arches, they will know and protect you.
