Seems like a pretty big deal that the census suspended all field operations due to the covid19 pandemic. [1] it may also be worth mentioning that the census is no longer using those handheld computers, but many employees are issued refurbished iphone8 [2] devices. Despite what this somewhat old source implies, these are not used for the count itself, they are more for administrative purposes. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:21, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
