<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you Bobby for your service and
stating what should be the obvious. It really isn’t all about
me. It is about keeping YOU safe as well. The idea that people
are cowering in fear boggles my mind. Yeah, if my spouse gets
Covid, hell even the flu, she’s more than likely dead. I’m
also high risk due to medication I take. Just being cautious.
I still go to my job, as making wine is deemed essential in
California. But I sure do all I can to limit my exposure to
others for their safety as well as my own. Weighing money vs.
lives is absurd. Who exactly among us, are expendable? The
field workers are also still hard at it. Doing all those jobs
that Americans say they want back. Yeah, sure. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The burn bans were implemented for a number
of reasons.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Most fire departments also run Emergency
Medical Services as well as typical Fire/Rescue. With that
being said firefighters in some areas are getting infected
with Covid (over 50 in New Orleans) leaving fire departments
short handed to deal with other emergencies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The smoke from these fires exasperates
issues with breathing problems for folks that have Covid and
other respiratory issues.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It’s also about adding a layer of social
distancing in an attempt to limit interaction with possibly
infected people by firefighters and further short staffing of
departments for more dire emergencies. And of course
lessening the possibility that an infected firefighter would
pass on the virus as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In my department’s case we were also short
4 firefighters that would have normally responded due to being
embedded in an isolation site for a fire watch patrol 24 hours
a day seven days per week. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Add in the bad weather (tornado’s) the
northern part of our state has been hit with in the last 3
weeks creating a different set of problems. The state
activated our Urban Search and Rescue team to respond to the
Monroe area last week.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, it’s not about exercising power or
control, but simply and attempt to not create further issues
with fires getting out of control and not having enough people
to deal with it “preservation of life and property”.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope this helps better understand the
issues/concerns we have<o:p></o:p></p>
