- DanBC 10y ago>You don't get to blame other people What? Of course you do. Sick people should probably stay away from work, especially if they have things like Noro.

- E6300 10y agoNo. In other words: your well-being is your problem. Don't expect other people to change their behavior for your sake. If you don't take care of yourself, no one will.

Doctors must wear gloves for fashion, since microbes apparently just phase through solid matter. > And of course, if you happen to be asthmatic, it's all psychological, and you get to decide, eg, whether that cigarette smoke will trigger an attack or not. Regardless of whether you're asthmatic or not, deciding not to go near the smoke is within your power.
