How much is the Pandemic going to cost you to reopen?
Curious for those who are closed right now...how much is it going to cost you to reopen when you get the green light?
I'm not asking about lost revenue, I'm asking real $ that you have to spend before you are allowed to open.
I was speaking to a dentist (they might have even higher requirements than a hospital as you're up close and personal with fluids) and the costs are astronomical.
>Sealing off treatment rooms (building walls, putting in doors),
> installing purification systems (leaving treatment room vacant for 8min to 3.5 hrs)
> full on PPE etc.
> very extensive cleaning between patients - presume you change from soiled PPE to new and then clean and then change again before next patient?
I'm not saying this is not reasonable...but how does a dentist make any money doing all of these things?
If your dentist is reopening, would you go for a cleaning right now?

Ontario requirements are much much higher

If you can please post profession, perhaps size of business (number of staff), things you have to do, costs you're bearing etc.
