Hits home today...
Went in for a doctors appointment today...needed the surgeon that took a melanoma
off of me last year to look at the scar...Now I haven't been anywhere with strict rules
regarding the virus..Yeah I wear a mask in walmart. Thats about the extent of my
experiences. So I enter the clinic and there is a nurse with one of those temperature
guns..She asks me if I phoned
the surgeons nurse? I didn't know I was supposed to.
She points to a sign on the entry door, which I hadn't looked at, with a phone number
to check in prior to entry. As she is explaining this to me, a person is coming through
the door and tells the nurse the number isn't working...So she tells us to go ahead and
go inside the lobby and check in...Clear plexi-glass screens are in front of the personel.
I check in, go up to the 2nd floor and am just getting into a game of solitar, when the
nurse that helped the surgeon on my neck..roughly a year ago, comes and gets me. Takes
me back into the examination room and tells me the doctor is at home with the corona!
She calls up the surgeon at home and uses her cell video cam to show him the scar..
Later I asked her what happens to those clinic personel that test postive and if they get
tested regularly..She said the tests are to hard to get to use them like common sense says
they should...every day. But, If she were to test positive, she would continue to work until
symptoms showed up...And to all that I give a big salute to the healthcare workers of
whatever discipline, for staying on the job...

fwiw..I asked the front door nurse with the temp gun what it was and if it would turn me into a republican...she laughed..
