plus 
having a field day it seems.
I went to the store yesterday and the cashier commented that day everyone she worked with had a mask on, including herself, so that's good.
Although, on the other hand, I took my aunt to another store the day before and when we were getting off the car I asked her if she needed a mask from my bag and she declined saying she doesn't wear one anymore and reminded me she had Covid recently anyway (wonder why) so she's "immune", I just laughed and was like "Okay, well, I'm not immune." She's a nurse.
Years before COVID I was in the hospital having a kidney removed. While I was recovering, one of my nurses started explaining why vaccines were dangerous. I've run into that kind of thing a lot with nurses over the years and I'll never fully understand. It's like they know just enough to be dangerous or something
Oh, that's shitty. I hope you recovered well from that. But my aunt isn't antivaxx, to be fair to her, she has all her vaccines.
But she's just kinda anti-mask for some unknown reason, even though I know she wears one at work. My mom and I would visit her house sometimes right after the height of it and we'd be masked and she'd try to guilt us like, "Why do you have your mask on? I'm your sister/aunt." And we'd just be like Haha So fucking what?
Nurses know how to follow orders. Somewhat. Don’t assume more knowledge until they demonstrate it.
