Yeah, I'll never travel again without a mask on the airport/plane/train. It fucking sucked to get the crud while I was on vacation, and it was like 50/50 whether I'd get something.
Airports and conventions are like these big petri dishes where everyone tracks in their bugs from all corners of the world and then take them back home. It's wild that any of them don't require masks. Convention crud was a meme before covid, and it sucks.
Oh god I know. I got sick so often when I flew. The only time I've left North America in my whole life I spent half of the week I was in London in bed sick. It was awful. Never again.
And I got con crud a bunch of times, too. In fact the only time I didn't get Con Crud was when I was staffing a kissing booth and we were all swigging vodka between kisses for sanitation reasons.
๐ซฆ kissing booths are not sanitary eww I was young and dumb. If you're going to do a kissing booth have, like, plastic wrap or something to use as a sanitary barrier. ๐ซฆ
Look we were young and dumb and it was for charity and I looked very pretty in my corset and heels.
Hospitals are even worse and yet somehow I've seen like half the people there not wearing masks which is just absolutely wild
fucking love to bring a baby to the hospital for severe respiratory distress as a result of viral infection, and then multiple followups and CT scans after the respiratory distress and every time, the medical staff see our masks and are like damn, do you want us to wear a mask? Hold on I'll go get one
