Muttley Snickers:
Today I walked up to the local shopping complex and one thing I noticed was almost every store has had acrylic shields installed around each cashiers station. I saw these shields installed at the local Aldi a few weeks ago and now they are everywhere. Installing these barriers would be a good little business to be in about now and probably some good money in it as well.       

Electro Detective:
yeah, nice little earner for the acrylic producing mob  :clap:

and also an indicator that this corona BS is definately going to drag out for months

if not years

I noticed the Australia post ones are just stuck down with doubled sided tape brackets. So capital investment would be low. Just a laser cutter, a plastic bender, and a crap ton of sticky brackets.

i.e. no population self detention and forthcoming economic downturn/Depression was deployed to battle and control AIDS

There was no reason to, you can't get AIDS from being in close proximity to infected people. If abstaining from casual sex was enough to prevent the spread of Covid we wouldn't have to take drastic measures to prevent that either.

Yea, but when the AIDS thing was all the rage,  wondered if the 'authorities' just didn't want people to know about the possibility? of problems with Mosquitoes piercing/sucking blood, moving from person to person, could result in a transmission! (Likewise with other bugs today)  ???

I also wondered about infected (from parents) children in Kindergarten wet sucking/chewing on pencils etc, before the same item gets picked up and put in the mouth of other children then??  (Sharing fluids). We need to be more vigilant, these days...  :(

Our supermarkets won't pack your bags for you, but will/have-to hand SCAN your selections first!
