disinfect commonly touched surfaces<\/a> or establish physical barriers in communal areas. There is no one-size-fits-all plan for all businesses because each business is different. There is a responsibility put on both customers\/patrons to businesses and the employees of those businesses to follow guidelines and ensure that steps are being taken to avoid viral transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Highest Risk Businesses<\/h1>\n\n\n\nBeaches And Community Pools<\/h2>\n\n\n\n First off, we have to clarify that your risk of contracting the virus in the ocean or in a pool is relatively low. Water activity is not the primary concern at these locations; rather, the concern is on the beach or around the pool. Public beaches and pools can get crowded rather quickly. Social distancing and wearing masks is encouraged, but overcrowding happens easily, so if you are unable to distance yourselves from others, leave the area for your own safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n After work drinks, Friday night hangs, or date nights happen at bars. While people may miss social drinking and bar ambiance, bars are very high risk during the pandemic, which is far from over. It is difficult to maintain a six-foot distance between you and others at bars, where close proximity is inevitable. People yell, laugh, share drinks, and dance at bars, which commonly have poor HVAC systems. Even if people wear masks, they will have to frequently remove them to drink, but this is impractical at bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Concert Halls, Churches, And Theaters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n These venues are not open in all states yet, but they may be opening in the upcoming months. Since the CDC warns against gatherings of 10 or more, these venues pose serious risks for COVID-19 transmission. Concerts and church assemblies are less likely to have the proper physical barriers, so people should be selective when choosing venues to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hair And Nail Salons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Quarantine put everyone on an even playing field for beard and hair care. Naturally, people are very excited to return to their nail salons or stylists and barbers, even though they are some of the highest risk places to visit<\/strong>. Most salons or barbershops have social distancing and increased sanitation measures in place, but you still need to take precautions. Call your establishment and inquire about their setup or policies for reopening.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAs you venture back into the world of reopened businesses, please keep all of these things in mind and protect yourself whenever possible. Keep your distance and stay safe to stay healthy.<\/p>\n
