Noone wants to work 24h shifts in an ffp2 if you don't really have to and also every colleague had like every possible infection during autumn already.
Yup. I'd rather get COVID than wear a mask all day every day. I will wear a mask if I know I'm sick, of hospitals are getting overwhelmed, or if I know I'll be around vulnerable people, but that's it. I took every precaution from 2020 on, and got sick anyway. It's going to happen, so I'd prefer to at least be comfortable than just delay the inevitable.
I got COVID two months ago and it sucked, and I'd rather repeat that than live my life with a mask.
Thank you for reminding us all of the dangers of long COVID. It is truly disheartening to see the devastating effect prolonged inflammation has had to your higher reasoning capabilities.
My SIL actually got a pretty serious case of long COVID, so I'm extra careful around her. I'll avoid visits if I've likely been exposed recently, and only go when I'm pretty sure I'm clean.
I'm happy to wear a mask upon request, but there's no way I'm wearing a mask all day every day out of fear.
