Covid just got real

I drive a diesel the stations in the Yamhill county area allow to self serve diesel. Now if only there were more stations that had more than one diesel pump.
I may be wrong, but I believe diesel is always exempt from the self service prohibition. I think the law only refers to gasoline.

Also, am I the only one that had the logic of this lost on them? I don't care about pumping my own gas, but how is it more sanitary to have everyone touching the pump instead of just the workers? I didn't actually read the article, but I heard on the radio it's more about not having enough workers. So maybe nothing to do with sanitation Guess we're all screwed either way. Oh well!

I agree with you no common sense

The idea is to protect the attendant and in the process possibly infected many

Yeah - this was my thought as well.  It's a bit whack as the station is still supposed to have people maintaining sterilization protocol - in which case, why can't they just pump the gas instead and limit the contact with the equipment?  I think this may have been one of those well intentioned things that just wasn't well thought out under the circumstances.  Not the first time...
