Suffering From The Disease Of Ignorance
I am working at one of the entrances of a hospital, handing out masks and asking health crisis screening questions. It’s been a year and a half since the health crisis started, and we’re in the thick of the fourth wave.
A woman comes in the door, and while she’s sanitizing her hands and putting on a mask, we have the following conversation.
Visitor: “It’s getting serious, hey?”
Me: “What’s getting serious?”
Visitor: “All this health stuff is getting serious, hey?”
Me: *Pauses* “If you just want to head down that hallway…”
I was so confused. What rock had she been living under?!
