I went the the QUT drive through @ Kelvin Grove. I should have taken a pic…..

they are on the second floor of a multi floor carpark

Temp gauge on the car was reading 30

They have fans facing the backs of the computer and the operator.

The lady that did my test was in a later of sweat under her PPE……

I hadn’t thought about the setup til today…..was a little shocked. I wish I had taken some treats for them.

Took about 2hrs from when I arrived….

The other thing that amazed me was people getting out of their cars to talk to other cars and People bring their dogs along and decided they need to walk them for a toilet break……

I have not had any reason to visit any of those places but when viewed on TV they do seem to be flat out like a Lizard drinking. It's a wonder some aren't bowled over with all that traffic surrounding them.

I have mentioned here previously they all deserve our thanks & appreciation for the work they are expected to do, the "faceless" thousands of them. I just hope they don't come down with any latent nasties brought on by the stress of the jobs & other transmissable bugs. We really do owe them all a great deal.

This one was well laid out…traffic controller.

Big sign saying to turn engine off, fit mask, and lower window before nurse will approach the car.

From memory there was a barrier as well…

Just thinking I might have dash cam footage although it might have been in sleep mode as I had the car idling for 2hrs

Yes, I had thought that would be the case under OH & S but I bet there have been some near misses.

Something to stop the the warm air from your breath recycling up to one's shades would be good as well.

I bought a big box of AMD n95 masks a few months ago and have been working my way through them. One of the best things about them is that they seal around your nose and are designed to wear for 24 hrs at a time.
