Quarantining after you get sick is not “stop living life”, it’s a week or two of staying inside while you’re still transmissible. It’s not too much to ask.
It’s scary how many people have the attitude that the person above does. It’s so easy to just avoid being around people when not feeling well. In fact, it’s always been the general expectation. It’s been an eye opener seeing how many people think they’re being oppressed because we ask them to consider other people around them.
I feel the same about people who take some sort of sick pride in coming to work when they’re sick. Stay the fuck home, people! No one wants your disease.
I worked in healthcare for a couple years, and we had to regularly mask up. The number of people I encountered who had conditions that caused them to not be able to breathe in a mask was zero.
Post-pandemic, people acted like they were dying if they were asked to wear a mask. Such a simple thing, and the masks were freely given, but people still refused.
You’re trying to put words in my mouth that I didn’t say. I do think it’s a good idea to stay at home while ill, personally I even wore a mask the first day after having the flu when going to the store. But right now basically everyone I know is having something, whether it’s the flu, COVID, or the common cold. You can stay inside while ill, but you can’t just stay home the moment you have some minor cold symptoms. Life goes on, at some point you’ll need to work and get groceries etc. We should take precautions, but we shouldn’t panic for every minor cough.
Once more, I don’t know the full context of the people in the image, so it’s very hard to say anything.

It’s about “a night out.” You … you know what a “night out” is, don’t you??? And that it’s not an essential part of life? Not something you should do, even when experiencing minor symptoms? You agree with me on this?
If not, then I’m not “putting words in [your] mouth.” If you think having a night out while symptomatic is acceptable, then you are saying exactly what I think you’re saying, and I’m right to call you out for having such a shitty selfish belief.
If not, then maybe you can clarify this. Because the post is not about getting groceries (which, for the record, you can mostly order online and pick up/have delivered anyway).

They think having to wear a mask is some sort of atrocity on par with the Trail of Tears, too.
I admit i didn’t think we’d be seeing people just straight up doing whatever they can to help a deadly pandemic.

People suck.
