People in the Lehigh valley generally don’t wear masks outside except the really urban folks and people waiting for the bus. From what I’ve seen in Philly and NYC people wear masks walking on the sidewalk. Just stopped by Mario’s pizza across the street from dispensary on Hamilton BLVd and three employees. One wearing a mask properly, one wearing it as a chin diaper and the owner had mask hanging from one of his ears. I still see people driving by themselves wearing masks.

I don’t think I’ve ever eaten hot pockets in the hotel house. If Salty comes by I’ll buy a box and he can double fist...

Yeah at one place I won’t name earlier in the pandemic the one owner was walking around shaking everybodies hand...crazy considering I gave my parents elbow bumps when I saw them a few weeks ago. Good thing my friend was carrying hand sanitizer. I don’t even remember how to shake hands it’s been so long lol.

This is how half the bars in Allentown are.

When I was out Saturday night you would have never known we are in the middle of a pandemic. Band playing, people dancing, costume contest...Covid fatigue is real.

It seems like most of the new cases are from small to medium sized at home gatherings. That’s what makes Thanksgiving so scary in terms of future spread. You have people who wanna hug and kiss each other spending hours together. Some are still very comfortable being close to people during this. When I had my car serviced last week the service tech was all up in my business..he did have a mask on but I feel like half the people out and about don’t think Covid is real. I honestly dont think governor Wolf has the balls to put any new restrictions in place. He has taken such a beating from small business owners that I feel he’s in the learn to live with it phase. I have noticed a significant drop off in people who want to come into my office vs late summer when we were only at 500-600 cases daily for PA

I know several people who had Covid but I also know a lot of people. I also feel like many people have kept hush hush about it if they test positive, they aren’t just broadcasting it on Facebook. The worst is one guy and his wife who are friends with my cousin and live down in Boyertown..they both got it at a home karaoke party. He was a Covid denier before and when he got it he said it’s just like a bad cold..then a few days later he had to go to the hospital because he had trouble breathing then a week later he had friends over to sing karaoke. I said you shouldn’t have people over and he said it’s ok, they were all around me before anyway. Sheesh. Almost like with chicken pox where people want to get infected.

Not gonna happen without more/new restrictions.

Ok Will

If it’s not ski season yet might as well be nice out. Let’s just hope in 2-3 weeks things switch to snowmaking temps.

118,000 new cases in the US today..third day in a row over 1,000 new deaths. That doesn’t necessarily mean a death rate of about 1% as deaths are a lagging indicator.

My friends wife works as a Pulmologist at Lehigh valley hospital and she said that hospitalizations for Covid have been increasing substantially as well. Western Europe has a much higher death rate and new case rate per capita than the US currently.

Nope they’re testing just as many people about 500 daily in the county but cases have steadily risen from 15-20 per day to like 60-70

Lehigh county had a positivity rate of like 16%..

Remember folks you can not bring your own sled to Blue and no crockpots in the lodge..leave the Wuhan stew at home.

A record 2900 new cases in PA...

Reminds me of the bird is the word song.

Right on...thanks for the info. Your governor might be stricter than PAs Governor.

108,000 new cases in the US and 1200 deaths.

What’s happening up in summit county?

Nope cases continue to rise in PA

My grandparents friend Fritz Kramer was the owner. When my mom was a kid apple hill was the little place and Doe mountain was the big place to ski. Doe mountain was renamed Bear Creek around 2000

2,875 new cases in PA.

Does your blackberry have a flashlight?
