Not defending doctors! I think most doctors are following the rules because are part of big hospital systems. Just like with big businesses hospital decisions are made at the top level. We may see a small local doctor that believes it's stupid but they don't speak out because they will loose their jobs. The pain doctor I see has been independent for twelve years. There hasn't been mask requirements in over a year. She continued to wear masks up until about six months ago. Now she doesn't wear mask.
My daughter is a nurse and they just became mask optional. Every time I visit my mom in the nursing home I have to give my name and answer the stupid Covid questions. Also get a mask. Most of the staff have the mask below the nose. Mercer is more dangerous in nursing homes than Covid! Don't sit on the toilet and wash your hands when you leave.
I feel the same way about doctors and the entire system. However if I hadn't gone to the ER in February I would be dead today. There nights in hospital and there surgeries and I'm finally on the mend. Sepsis isn't a joke! It came on in less than twelve hours.
Around here, every drs office and hospital/urgent care still require masks .
It's a fucking disgrace.
Makes you wonder about their mentality and credibility and just how good of a doctor they are if they still think a mask will save them.

Your correct at big metropolitan corporate hospitals , I'm talking about private doctors and I for one will never darken a doctors door again.
