Plague Update: Moe More Restaurant Dining

While skirting the household gathering limit, the Sask Premier was exposed to COVID-19 in PA.

The irony of Scott Moe being exposed to covid at a restaurant days after encouraging all of us to go out to restaurants is….really something.

We can now report that the Premier's potential exposure stems from a lunch with his family at an Original Joe's restaurant in Prince Albert on November 15. Moe's office says he was lunching with family members after a death in the family. https://t.co/z39lFEVUuu

A few people have noted the Premier’s anti-science stance on COVID-19 transmission in restaurants.

“At a restaurant, for instance, Moe said “we are much less likely to let our guard down,” and more likely to follow protocols that have been set.”

Wrong again @PremierScottMoe people ARE letting their guard down in restaurants.

You should be encouraging ppl to #StayHome

Part of the new public health order is a bit of a head scratcher.

You can only have 5 people in a private home but 6 people can sit at a table in the taproom?

We are going to observe the spirit of the new rules – going forward, only 5 to a table. pic.twitter.com/ZyHgAfaE8q

According to Moe, yes. He said if your family unit has 5 or more people you can have no in home visitors. We are a family of 7 so are in the same boat.
But you could apparently meet up for supper at a restaurant, go play Bingo, or go to church together and that’s all good. 🤦🏼‍♀️

This, right here, is why yesterday Sask Premier Scott Moe (at his COVID news conference) told us not to have more than 5 people in our home but to feel free going out to a restaurant. #skpoli pic.twitter.com/JD36EkIuIi
