A real interaction between a pharmacy cashier and a customer that I overheard with my very own ears in Crooksville, OH, last week.

Granted, I didn’t have high expectations for the combination pharmacy-hardware store, but WOW.

What shocking covid-related things have you encountered lately?

    In the before-times no staff anywhere, at least that I knew, would ever have refused to wear a mask for a patient request. It is absurd how blatantly politicized this genuinely unprecedented virus is to where all social norms are essentially evaporating to a collective trauma around… a few weeks of very lenient stay-home policies in some places, I guess. We’re so cooked lol

      Right? That’s all it took.

      I mean frankly, they should be in a mask all day long. EVERY SINGLE PATIENT without exception, by the very nature of the doctor’s specialized services is at increased risk. I wasn’t an exception, I was the norm.

      We are absolutely cooked.
