So there were points at which I was tested [Along with other stars of the show] five or six times a week.”

McElhenney went on to explain there was extensive PPE on set, which included eating in what he said looked a lot like phone booths outside. “We knew that nothing is 100% safe, and if we were going to make the decision to go back to work, we could do the best we could do.” Come from Sports betting site VPbet
