@justyourluck When I was at the ER (not for me, a family member) a few months ago, there were a TON of people not wearing masks with family in the ER, or sick and going to the ER without a mask, where EVERYONE HAS EVERYTHING (this was during a huge RSV/NORO time). People: FINE, you are embarrassed to wear a mask at the store, but YOU ARE GOING TO THE MOST INFECTIOUS PLACE IN TOWN, IT"S THE EMERGENCY ROOM. EVERYONE THERE IS SICK. WEAR A MASK!!!

@justyourluck Preaching to the choir, someone I know got COVID (from their family) after visiting their dear aunt, sick, at the hospital. They were sitting in the room ooing and awing about the poor aunt getting better during visiting hours (sans mask in a hospital, mind you) and they asked the nurse: "so what's wrong with her?" and the reply was: "oh, she has a bad case of COVID" (yes... the whole family got it after the hospital visit, thankfully, none severe).

And it's always after the exposure they say anything.

"Oh by the way, I/they have COVID"

@ai6yr @justyourluck I went through this with a family member who had an emergency recently. The most disheartening thing was how many ER staff weren't masked. Or wore them for brief periods, and then took them off.


@jbaggs @justyourluck I took my aranet4 to the ER here. The waiting room is DISMAL. But, the ER itself is absolutely rock solid clean, they have the turnover rate there set to MAX... There's a certain percentage of first responders who figure they are going to get anything anyway. (others who are wiser mask up... I know more than a few nurses who had to medically retire due to long COVID).

There might be the occasional broken bone or gaping head wound but the majority are sick.


@justyourluck Walk past someone who is coughing and sneezing and snot... NO MASK. People have no brains!

@ai6yr @justyourluck the stupidity stuns me. The STAFF aren’t even masking.
