This shit is kind of crazy. I had to go to the hospital this week, and they still make everyone wear a mask. You come in without a mask, you're getting a mask. Every doctor and employee and patient and guest. I can't say that everywhere where I am is good, in fact it's not, but at least the fucking hospital is serious.

I would love it if my hospital were like that. I've gotta go in regularly because autoimmune diseases, but my rheumatologist and nursing staff dropped masks the second they were allowed. This is a building that pretty much only treats people with cancer or autoimmune diseases. Absolutely wild.

goddamn, sorry to hear that. really fucked up for them to be like that, let alone that the context basically demands it. shit, context would make it a good idea before covid hit, let alone now.

I occasionally take my grandma to doctors appointments and they haven't required masks for well over a year.

i think i must just be very lucky that the medical services that i go to in my area have continued to take things seriously.
