B.C. has banned all indoor and outdoor adult team sports, prompted not by the playing of the sports but due to locker room and post game socializing/get-togethers.
Ski resorts in B.C. have closed locker rooms and gear storage and limited indoor dining to small numbers, masks required indoors except when seated at a table. Face coverings (buffs, tubes, etc.) required for lift lines.
We are supposed to ski locally and I expect the banning of team sports will push more people to skiing.
4 Sun Peaks Grand Hotel employees have tested positive and they and people exposed to them are now in isolation. No hotel guests were exposed.
I wish Ontario would open the out door exercise areas that follow protocols.. I hope to get the chance if I can quarantine and come across the border to take my grand children out. I hope i'm vaccinated as an Amazon worker/logistics in February. I don't think if ski resorts are following the protocols they add to the spread. Hotels are scary. Robin is still travelling (driving everywhere) as an essential worker. I go along often just to cook meals in the hotel (lots of closed restaurants and just not wanting to eat indoors at restaurants) and I bring along disinfectant and clean the rooms, carry wipes to push elevator buttons, ride alone in elevators etc. The breakfast areas of hotels are dicey and the coffee stands and people that won't wear masks and pull them down from their nose so we avoid those situations. Some hotels have been really good, they make breakfast and serve it with one or two employees to serve it and you take it to your room to eat, no gathering, others don't enforce mask wearing and allow gathering. Hotel workers should be on the list to get vaccinated early. They not only risk it but half the medical workers and special volunteers and essential workers stay at hotels instead of taking it home to their families. Hope it all ends soon.
