When I leave to do errands, my family shouts in unison, “Bye! Love you! Don’t get Covid!” I’ll try, my beautifuls.

I realized something last night about the ‘masks don’t work’ crowd; if they were serious, they would advocate for better masks… ones that ‘DO WORK’. But, really, they just don’t want to wear a mask. The end.

In healthcare, a bare-faced practitioner asking a you, masked person, if you prefer they mask is a power-play to make you say the words. They want you to know that they don’t think it’s necessary, that it’s a favour. That you are weak and they are strong. All under the radar.

A whispered fear: “What if my infection from 2022 is all it took? What if it’s all for nothing & my health is already lost?” I share this fear. But, fighting this virus is always going to be the right thing to do, come what may. Viral load matters. Number of infections matters.

Update: My 3-year-old, whose antibiotics were prescribed yesterday, reluctantly (and with a dose of shaming) has woken up screaming this morning from pain in his arms and a rash from hands to elbows. So, yeah, I think the antibiotics are necessary.

Refusing to mask for patients is an (unacceptable) outlet for anger and a desperate grasp at control in what is probably a very frustrating job. I don’t excuse it. It just means you are a nasty piece of work and should be in a different job.

I felt panic when (somewhere in 2022) I first opened my eyes to how depraved, selfish and willfully ignorant most of society is. But after that, the words anxiety, fear, worry and panic all changed. Now, I simply prepare, protect and learn.

FIL just got in touch to say he has Covid (second time this year). He contacted Hamilton public health for access to rapid tests and they told him not to bother testing more than once. He can wear a mask in crowded places if he wishes. This is where we are.
