Not good. It’s definitely getting a lot worse. This is probably the inevitable spike in cases from people getting together irresponsibly over Christmas and New Year. The case count went from 379 to 406 yesterday at my work site. Starting this week, HR is also letting us know where and when the infected employee was onsite. There is nothing currently in my department area but the cases are pretty much all over. I am sort of pissed off at everyone getting sick. I had to stay pretty isolated for the past nine months, but the situation has gotten worse for me (and my transplant surgery) because selfish people can’t follow public health instructions.
I believe my company is still working on getting vaccines for our workers. I don’t know if the essential business covers everyone or just those that have to work onsite. Probably 50% of the employees can work from home. It’s a race to see what designation will get me vaccinated first: essential worker, immuno-compromised (post-transplant), medical history (diabetes + heart surgery), or just being over 50 years old.
