As a retired teacher I found the first 10 years of teaching I generally used up about half my sick day (5). The last 22 years...well, I accumulated over185 sick days. Think I must have come in contact with almost all the variant s of the common cold
I am a retire RN ..I worked a med/surg floor and came in contact with every known pathogen ...I cared for and stareted IV’s on HIV pts before we even had a name for it..I took care of active TB pts before they were diagnosed.. (maskeless )...never needed a sick day so only took those famous “mental health days” when I needed a break... The human immune system is a miracle ... I am not hiding in my basement from this either.. I go maskless unless forced to wear one.. BTW I have COPD and am overweight and old..I have to LOL at people wearing masks in their cars or walking our side alone or with a friend.. We have raised a generation of snowflakes ..hiding from a viris that has a 99.979 recovery 😳
