That would have made more sense but I have since reconsidered.If the non-contact infra-red thermometers are really crucial to the COVID19 fight, as we are led to believe, something will have to be done about them. Otherwise it is all an act in futility and we should edit them off the list and stick to other protocols. Unfortunately, it is taking too long.
