I'll be at KI next weekend. I spent all last weekend at Holiday World. Very few masks. No real distancing. Amazing I'm still here to talk about it.  Can't wait to get on Orion!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibul Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Well, the new owners of Indiana Beach are making a pretty disgusting first impression. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it was a "maybe they are just working on how to operate and working out the kinks" but after this pic from CoasterForce I doubt they are even interested in protecting their employees.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibul Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Yikes. So yeah, it would seem their employees aren't even masked up. Very, very concerning. EDIT: Yeah, definitely nowhere NEARLY as extensive as Kings Island's plan is: https://www.indianabeach.com/covid-19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IB’s policies fall way short of industry standard (social distancing and recommendation of masks). I’ve always said that CF’s approach is the best out of any park/chain, and if people want safe clean fun, look towards CF.

I guess, but just last week you were bemoaning and graphing the spiral of death and destruction in Warren Co Ohio, home to Kings Island the Fun and Only. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never at any point stated anything like that. I pointed out the fact that numbers were rising, that’s it. The fact that people are unable to accept simple numbers and data points (and reasonable course of actions) is the whole reason why we’re still having the discussion mid pandemic rather than ending the pandemic 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no expert in global pandemics, but I have asked those who work in the field to explain the recent trends. That being said, if there’s something one can’t understand, it’s best to seek out the experts.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjcolglazier Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Here's a graph on hospital admissions in Indiana. Basically half of all Covid deaths in Indiana have been in nursing homes. Hospital admissions continue to decrease. The graph above suggesting White County, IN is somehow a "hotspot" is ridiculous. Anyone under 50---without major complications---at Indiana Beach is going to be just fine. Even if they do get it. Just don't go visit grandma after. Be smart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
