

Business as usual, I don't expect it will be much different than it is now.



Stockpiling significant cash in the business in case of major slowdown or closure.



Stockpiling a significant amount of supplies in case of major slowdown or closure.



Not worried, the government will bail us out like this year if it gets bad.



Deferring new equipment purchases.



It's mostly hype, enough already.

I'm not expecting another closure, but from the beginning of COVID we have been warned
about a so-called "second wave" possibly coming between late November and April. It certainly
has the appearance of a possible early arrival in Europe. Just curious about dentist attitudes
toward the possibility, and what plans we have. ■

You need a box that says, "I think things will slow down, but I'm not doing anything about
it." That's where my checkmark lives. This is definitely one of those "this is outta my hands"
deals. So I'm gonna just roll with it the best we can.
I think the bigger issue will be the normal winter sniffles, cold symptoms. I am expecting a
fair amount of last-minute cancellations due to this. Hope I'm wrong.
But if I'm not, it's just the way it is. I'm allowing myself the grace to accept that which is out
of my hands. ■

I'm noticing many last-minute cancellations due to illness. Up here in Green Bay, we have
some of the worst numbers in the country, so the cancellations are to be expected. While I know
there will be cold, flu and other illnesses, keeping unnecessary exposure in the office seems like
a smart thing to do. Hygiene especially has been hit with cancels and openings. I'm just trying
to ride with it, hoping I don't get sick and have to close up completely. We haven't seen an issue
with acquiring any supplies, so that is a plus. ■
