I guess we should demand that they go maskless during our operations when we are knocked out under the knife… Out of consideration for their eyesight. That’s the least we can do. I’d like to see the worldwide macular degeneration figures for health care personnel.
Meanwhile here in Japan, we’ve reached 142-deaths-per-million due to full or partial Covid-19 infection.
(The current US rate is 2,206-per-million people.)
Surgeons have a reason for wearing them and throw out masks very often after a short time, butthead.
