My sis caught Covid from an unmasked worker at the retirement community where she works. [View all]

I am so mad I could scream. She works at a HUGE retirement/assisted living/nursing home community in MS. Think The Villages. Well off people from all over the country.

A guy who works there came to work with symptoms, was tested with a test that took hours to get results, STAYED at work UNMASKED and sat beside her for hours (she’s vaxxed, masked, whole nine—why she sat by him I don’t know) and now she’s pretty sick, as is half the staff. She has asthma and a clotting issue so is high risk. She got monoclonal antibodies and steroids quickly, thank goodness, and is on the mend, but if it wasn’t a hopeless endeavor I’d sue the crap out of the place for letting that fool stay there and mingle with everyone. They’re now understaffed with a resident population who may well have a surge too.

I swear, I had no idea people—not the obviously impaired but business owners, professionals, etc.—we’re so damned stupid til this virus hit. The depression over the collective state of humankind is almost as bad as the plague itself.
