The ‘New Normal’ .. ‘New-New Normal’?

One might even say: “Nanu-nanu“.

We know the ‘New Normal’:

• We practice “Distancing .. Physical, not Social (please)“
• We “Behave like you have it ..“
• We practice “Stepping Up“, helping each other
• We “Respect the Mask“.

At this point, we must recognize “What we are doing is working ..“. Not just to continue, but to double-down on our efforts. We can see “the progress confirms the strategy is working” from NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio.

Once “Testing, Testing, Testing” is widely available, what does the ‘New New Normal’ look like?

Well, until a working vaccine is available AND we verify “The Resolved” aren’t carrying the virus with them, before going out they must (an abbreviated list):

• Take their temperature when they awaken and again when they get to work.
• Wear a mask to work.
• Wear a mask at work, unless in a confirmed private office.
• Wear a mask to the restroom.
• Consider keeping the mask on in their confirmed private office.
• Take their temperature.
• Don’t congregate with other employees.
• Wear a mask back to home.
• Take their temperature when they arrive.
• Shower.
• Wash their day clothes.
• Change into night, ‘home only’ clothes.

Employers must provide better ventilation, improve filtration and manage public facilities, perhaps as far as separate kitchens, restrooms, areas of the building or pathways.

I’m sure the CDC will do a significantly better job than have I.

The limited opening in Wuhan (I’ll talk about this later) may be fueling our irrational exuberance to return to normal .. I hope for expert heads to make these decisions.

Oh .. if ‘The Resolved’ can carry and shed the virus .. will we have a ‘New New New New Normal’?
