Maybe Asians are use to this...

But you had to stand in line to get into the food store...and you to stand 5 feet apart from every other patron...they had markers for you stand on...

And they wouldn't let you in the store unless someone else came out. They had a quota of like 20 people in the store and all the employees were wearing masks.

And when you went into the store, they gave you your cart and made you stick out your hand to be sanitzed with alcohol and when you left the store they re-sanitzed you with alcohol...

And you had to give the cart back to them so they could wipe it down.

And they weren't accepting US cash. Just cards to be swiped.

They acted like you were walking into a leper colony.

That's been Texas for the past two weeks.

Welcome to the party, pal.

Walmart has been doing this.

Cash has more germs than a toilet. So it’s gross even before a deadly virus joined to foray.

Should be mandatory at all grocery stores after all of this. Flu and other illness would probably drop in a measurable way.

Where do you live? I’m now socially conditioned for this after the last three weeks.

I had been to other stores last week...major, saw maybe one checkout clerk wearing a mask.

Never seen the control like this.

I'm surprise they let patrons in the store without masks.

This was a controlled environment with the illusion of safety. The TSA of our food shopping world.

It seriously felt like you were going through airport security. And nobody raised a rabble. Because they need food. Fear makes people acquiesce to anything. You can tell us anything and we immediately panic. Like this only took two months and the country is in shambles because of a "unique" flu?

They're all unique flus. That's what makes them flus.

Here in Trinidad non grocery stores all meet you with hand sanitizer.

But all mom and pop grocery, outdoor markets, and grocery stores ALL have installed outdoor sinks for you to wash your hands before entering.

The larger groceries have someone to squirt soap on your hands, two sinks, and they just leave the tap running.

Now the only thing that holds it up are the budding surgeons. The guy in front of you who hasnt bothered to wash his hands in days before this outbreak is suddenly Dr. Welby in charge of neurosurgery and is scrubbing down himself from elbow to fingertips.

It's just when does it stop?

This unoffical martial law?

When are people free to move about freely without being forced to use hand sanitizer and wear a mask just to buy an apple?

When does it stop? Oh you fool. It's not stopping. The Corona virus is the beginning my friend. This has been planned out for years.

Why, it’s almost like a company has exercised their ability to set rules within their own stores. Maybe you think the government should intervene to tell them how to run their stores?

Obviously you've been sheltering in place. Academy Sports and other retailers have been doing this for over a week now.
