All through this pandemic I have been calling my mother daily. She lives alone and it was important for her to maintain contact with the outside world. More recently I have also been talking to one of my sisters daily. She had major surgery last month and needs the contact of others for moral support.
I don't live alone. I am married and have two young adults living at home. I am trying to raise emotionally healthy kids. My daughter just started dating a wonderful guy. I want her to have a great experience and so I am keeping her away from the burden of all the daily family gossip and drama. This family drama is getting worse and worse everyday. I can't cope. And I dread the day that my daughters new boyfriend might have to meet these people.
I think it's time to slow down with these phone calls.
Adam Aron CEO of AMC just admitted prior to pandemic. Seating capacity nationwide on average was at 17% with multiple showings per day. This translates to present time, That the seating capacity during this pandemic is moot, it doesn't even register, if seating capacity could only meet 20%~50% in theater anyway.
Now with the addition of AMC On Demand in the E-commerce video rental industry. AMC ON DEMAND is expected to improve AMC bottom line prior to revenues prior to the pandemic!
Less over head improved revenue!
Stay alert, control the virus, save lives
You can now go out and your household can now meet people from another household in any setting (indoor, outdoor, private or public) as much as you want. You can also meet up to six people outdoors from any number of households. Gatherings of more than 30 people are strictly illegal.
Stay 2m (6ft) away from people that you don't live with where practical, and at least 1m (3ft) away at all times. Do your very best to maintain hygiene, washing your hands and shared surfaces at every opportunity. There are tighter rules for vulnerable people who are shielding. And of course, you should only do what you're comfortable with.
If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, even mild, stay home for at least 10 days until you no-longer have a temperature. Get a test through the gov.uk testing website or calling 119. Others in your household must stay home for 14 days.
Treatment for mild COVID-19 symptoms is paracetamol and cough syrup. If you're very ill, call 111, or in an emergency, call 999 - DO NOT go to a GP surgery, pharmacy or hospital with COVID-19.
