I'm still masking, but not at home. My spouse isn't, and got COVID. She didn't tell me about mild symptoms she had until the second day, so we shared a bed at her most contagious stage. I started masking and. Isolating in the home - but my spouse is emotionally incapable of masking, so there was still a decent chance I would catch it.
I had no symptoms, but was within the period of time that I could be asymptomatic, test negative, but still be contagious when I had a cancer check-up. After testing negative the day of the appointment I decided not to cancel the appointment. I masked up, and informed everyone of my recent exposure before close contact so they could choose to throw on a mask to protect themselves and their other patients.
Only one person would have done so (a resident), but she couldn't find a mask.
Cleveland Clinic. Main Campus. With a disclosed recent, unmasked extended exposure to COVID. Not a single masked care provider.
Like I said - the anti-mask sentiment didn't stop at the doors if the medical facilities. I am far less likely to encounter anyone wearing a mask in the hospital now than before COVID.
