Probably if somebody coughed saliva directly into your eyes, it could be absorbed...but the chance of getting a direct hit from just walking around is pretty slim. Anyway, a lot of these people are already wearing glasses...under their face shields.
But I can see why they’re sacred. I happened to see part of some morning program in the locker room at the gym this morning, and it was nothing but the most hysterical fear, dire stories, stupid things Fauci has said, etc. A lot of people spend hours a day being subjected to this screaming fear TV and they really are terrified.
That would make sense about the saliva in the eye...
but so many things they just dont understand.
I have woken up with pink eye several times last year and never had it before in my life that I remember. Feels like glass in my eye. Every time it happens I think WTF....do I have COVID now.
Next time I am going to an eye doctor and see if something going on in there.
