There's a dashboard that provides level of risk for groups of people by county: https://covid19risk.biosci.gatech.edu/ The current risk level in my county for a group of 10 people is 35%. (You can use the slider on the left side of the screen to put the event size down to 10 people.) How do you happen to find this type of tool via a straight Google search?

The first is Canada vs the United States. The second is a funny one <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EdpWqrJU8AYSTjW?format=jpg&name=small" rel="nofollow">This photo, taken at Niagara Falls, shows the contrast between passengers on a Canadian boat VS one from the US.

We can use maybe site:youtube,com/post but I don't think that will help as no other description is available.

I have always thought different name could be better because in this time we need to be closer socially and with more physical distance. <br /><br />While reading your news, I was wondering how states or cities can enforce those rules like the BBQ one. I think it is more about us than about governments and especially when we keep reading that someone says x and others says y and others say z. Of course, there are some rules that everyone should obey but even those aren't always enforced. <br /><br />In Mexico most of the messages are like if you can stay home. Some decrees had good intentions and bad outcomes. Here in Puebla, for a while we had a day without a car and that made that more public transport was used incrementing the infections. About masks, there is also a decree to wear them and if you don't there is no punishment. So I have seen many without it, especially men. Another case is restaurants. By decree there is only pick up or delivery to home. However, I have seen that some restaurants and other "not essential" businesses are in business and authorities just put attention to some. <br /><br /><br />1. Can you find the local--and CURRENT--COVID regulations about what is permissible behavior in your town/city/county/state? Once you've found them, what was your strategy? <br /><br />My strategy was to find the quickest possible way the answers and also decided to follow Europe and other recommendations like Dr. Sanjay Gupta and U. S. Surgeon General's. <br /><br />To find the rules and data that are specific to follow and obey in Mexico and in Puebla:<br /><br />a) I search on Google [Puebla covid] and find data, news and lots of links to information. <br /><br />b) Then searched for official sources. And the quickest way was to find the Gobierno de Puebla Twitter account (Gob_Puebla). Then, I read our municipal government account to verify if there is news. <br /><br />c) To be informed about cases and how are we doing as a country and states, I found Dr. Erdely's Twitter account (ArturoErdely) <br /><br />d) When I need to find if a business is open, as an example, my strategy is to search for Social Media of that business. <br /><br />I like a lot the advice from Dr Bonnie Henry.

There are several links to FAQ's about the status. <br /><br />One of those links took me to governor's roadmap to reopening. Each county may be in a different stage of reopening. There was a map with links to each county where they post information about their phase and what is allowed and what is not. <br /><br />On the county site, there are PDFs with executive order details from the county chairperson. krossbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07877826327758153784noreply@blogger.com
