Good.

I have absolutely no problems wearing a mask at a doctor's office, it's just annoying when they ask you to take it off for some reason (check your throat, etc.) but then snap at you if you don't put it back on fast enough or talk while the mask is off.

I went to a Kaiser doctor a couple of weeks ago and was surprised to see he was wearing three masks (two surgical and one N95) and a face shield. None of my business and I could care less, but I haven't seen anyone with that level of protection in like two years.

Could make sense if he was high risk I guess, or was going to do a high-risk procedure on you.

I just enjoyed not getting upper respiratory infections from patients over the last three years. Will probably keep wearing N95s from the start to end of the winter.

It was just a visit to get a Tret RX lol

Again, it didn't bother me and is none of my business, I just found it interesting...I assumed he was likely high-risk.

Agree though, I masked all throughout winter and didn't get sick once. Will probably do so again this winter.
