Not to mention, PPE protects you against diseases which aren't COVID-19 - the common cold, influenza, tuberculosis... health care workers are always going to be safer (and keep their patients safer!) by masking up.
- nradov 2y agoYou've got to be kidding. There's no way most healthcare workers will ever tolerate constantly wearing masks. Especially not for routine ambulatory care that doesn't involve breaking the skin.
- Synaesthesia 2y agoI wore a mask every day to work and outside for over a year. It's not a big deal.
- simoncion 2y ago> It's not a big deal. Agreed. If you don't have respiratory, skin, or sensory-processing issues that make it a big deal, it's not a big deal. Given the "breaking the skin" comment, I wonder if PP is thinking of clear plastic face shields which protect against spatter, but not aerosols.
