Multi-trillion dollar stimulus package....looks like their feeling the Bern!!
Visiting audio stores?
This is probably the last concern on many people's minds, so I'm raising this just in case anyone feels like relaying their experience.
I've become pretty cautious about where I go and why. So, for me, I'm not going to any audio stores to listen to gear, out of caution about the virus. I do feel concern for these stores and how it will impact them. Are folks going? Anyone running an audio store who wants to comment? How are you coping? Are you changing any policies or running any more sales online? Changes in trial periods to help more people try out gear remotely?
Again, this is a minor concern given the larger dimensions of this virus situation, but I thought I'd reach out with a question.

It gets political because politicians are in the drivers seat instead of scientists. https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/01/31/coronavirus-china-trump-united-states-public-health-emergency-r... |
While travel bans may mitigate the situation temporarily they cannot stop the inevitable, their sole purpose is to improve the optics. https://globalnews.ca/news/6546569/china-coronavirus-flights-canada/ |
Your right big_greg it IS about the math which is why instituting a travel ban and then claiming “mission accomplished accomplished” was such a huge blunder. Instead we should have readying our medical infrastructure and testing on a mass scale to mitigate the spread. This administration was warned repeatedly that the country was not ready to handle a pandemic and that travel bans are not effective. But as I said they are only worried about the optics....which aren’t too good I might add. Oh well I’m at a 3500 acre hunting ranch with stockpiles of provisions to last more than a year. Hope the rest of you had the foresight to see this coming further than a month ago. |
