That's a very comprehensive thought out good approach.
However, one KEY ingredient is missing........testing.
Anyone re-entering the workplace needs to undergo testing monthly (at the least).
Anyone boarding a flight should have a negative test result to show the ticket agent. That result should be no less than 72 hours old.

Yeah I have thoughts on that but chose not to get into it with the post getting as long as it did. I agree with you here, however the only thing is that it is tough to set or recommend business practices around a test we a.) don't know how it will work, b.) we don't know how expensive it would be to keep a steady supply of, and c.) we don't know how plentiful that supply would realistically be.

Will these be $5 tests that come in 20-packs and are readily available at every local drug store and at Wal-Marts, or will these be $100 tests that are one, single test that many individuals would only be able to afford to purchase and use once or twice a year and/or also create an unrealistically expensive line item expense on a business' financial ledger?
