How do I feel about the reduced visiting? Well, reduced implies that we get some type of visitation, which is false. We have been cut off from that comfort aspect. I understand the concern of possible spread from our families, but some safety measures can be implemented for family visiting overnight.
Regular visiting can be limited to ensure social distancing, for example, 50% capacity, one-hour sessions followed by four spots. Family visits can be approved via rapid testing prior to proceeding our visitors, as well as a limit of two visitors max.
That’s my opinions, feelings, and views regarding this pandemic.
