My trust is gone. I've been on azathioprine & prednisone for 15+ years, fit tested & worn masks or N95, during that time. I've given my son, an ICU RN, a couple N95s. My Dad is on same meds now. He was "told" masks don't work.
I'll never forgive the liars.
Friday we had at least 125,000 new coronavirus cases, 1,137 deaths, 54,000 Americans are hospitalized,11,000 of them in intensive care. we could reach daily 200,000 new cases, We must take actions to reverse the trajectory & spread.
I'm a dental hygienist
I'm 16 inches away from mouths all day long with aerosols coming from the patient's mouth for 30-45 min per patient.
I haven't been sick in many years and most of my coworkers are rarely sick.
It's anecdotal but I knew our masks and eye wear had a role
Find a sewing pattern online and make one. Leave the disposable ones for healthcare workers that must change between every patient contact or risk deaths.
It was wrong of medical professionals to lie about the efficacy of wearing masks. Dr’s & scientists should never lie—it will take a long time to earn people’s trust.
