[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of flu-like viruses circulating in the pediatric population right now.  This is anecdotal, but I don't recall this many respiratory viruses circulating this late in the spring in years past.  I am on day 6 of a particularly gnarly one and I dug out an N-95 to run errands today, just out of consideration for others.  My kids and I are sicker with this virus than we were with the flu in February, but I finally had to leave my house.[/quote]

Being considerate is staying home.  You can order everything delivered.[/quote]

I stayed home 6 days, crazy.  Nobody is catching something from a masked person running in somewhere and staying  clear of others.  We have to take precautions and live our lives.  I don't expect people with post-viral coughs to isolate for 2-3 weeks, do you?[/quote]

You realize colds and other viruses are surface-based, so if you are sick its not just the mask.  I just went to a doctor who was masking and sai he was sick.  I am so careful and rarely go out and was so pissed even though I waited months for the appointment I wish he would have canceled as now I'm sick and it will be weeks before I'm better due to health conditions.  I expect people to isolate when they are sick.  You have no idea the impact a simple cold has on someone like me. And as a bonus, someone made my kid sick at school with something different.[/quote]

That doctor was unprofessional and greedy.
 Sick people don’t need to fear catching an additional illness from their health care provider.

OUT HIM here, and on review sites. [/quote]
