Went to the vets today with my dogs pups. I was asked to wear a mask, but refused as I have a medical exemption. I was told to leave the building by one of the techs (in front of the vet). I said I am paying for this and I want to see what is happening. The vet said I could stand outside and look thru the window, I laughed saying " I would be closer to you than I am now do you think the virus knows I am outside?" Then he told me that he was wearing a mask to protect me not himself, I said " do you realise that statement makes no sense"? I said I would stay away from them, because I had bacterial pneumonia in the past and mask wearers are incubators for bacteria. I also pointed out there is no asymptomatic spread and the CDC states they have never isolated the virus from sick people. The vet said why all these sick people. " influenza " was my reply no one is testing for that any more it has disappeared off the radar. We parted on good terms but the fear is palpable!
