New York (CNN Business)Stores are scrambling to protect their workers from coronavirus.
Some have begun taking employees’ temperatures to keep sick workers home. But that doesn’t keep employees safe from sick customers.
That’s why a number of stores are considering taking customers’ temperatures before they enter. Public health experts say it is a prudent step: Grocery stores are one of the few public spaces still open. Millions of Americans are visit them every day and come into close contact with stores’ employees.
“If they decided to roll such a program to their workers, under the assumption that it would prevent infected individuals from being at their stores, I do not see a reason why that wouldn’t be rolled out to customers as well,” said Dr. Luciana Borio, former director for medical and biodefense preparedness at the National Security Council under President Donald Trump and former acting chief scientist at the FDA. “Even a modest benefit can be of value when our public health options are so limited in the absence of diagnostic tests, capacity for large scale contact tracing or a vaccine.”
Matthew Freeman, associate professor of environmental health and epidemiology at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health, said it “makes sense for businesses to take the temperatures of shoppers to protect employees and patrons, but what would be the response if someone did indeed have a fever? A plan of action is critical.”

They just keep adding on to it everyday…
They want to use rectal thermometers

Of all the frictional resistances, the one that most retards human movement is ignorance, what Buddha called ‘the greatest evil in the world.’ The friction which results from ignorance … can be reduced only by the spread of knowledge and the unification of the heterogeneous elements of humanity. No effort could be better spent. Nikola Tesla
They want to regress us to the level of being a child.
Any stores that do this deserve to be boycotted.
If all stores do this, it hastens our mission.
Those who comply with this and allow the shelf-stocking worker at Walmart to take their temperature, deserve anything that comes to them.
Corporate Fascism has grown so bold that it has now abandoned its stealth methods and openly oppresses through the most absurd orchestrations.

Its interesting to say the least but there are companies that are working right now to get this tech into the hands of both the gov and private industry.
From the beginning I told the people around me they are going to get this tech out there as quickly as possible and gov is going to be one of the groups to buy this in mass. By the time this is all over you will potentially see these installed at the entrances of all gov buildings. The private sector will take the lead at first like planes buses and trains in order to board. A new form of medical segregation is about to dawn and will come about since the people are looking to demand it via forced vaccinations. Where are your vaccination papers in order to board this xyz transportation.
Ridiculous.
