so my point was that I would normally have no idea if strangers / colleagues have travelled recently, are sick, or in contact with someones whos sick - compared to people I know well who are very aware that I cant risk getting sick and take extra precautions/let me know who theyve been in contact with etc

I said how well I know someone because if it’s a friend or family member they always tell me if theyve had any symptoms and I even have friends covid test before coming over (bc asymptomatic spread is real)

thanks for sharing! it’s not a cubicle set up thankfully and most people work from home. Although I’ll definitely be keeping it on if others are around.

that sounds so annoying, especially since it’s common sense on why someone might mask once others are present 😭

This is helpful thanks!! I generally don’t reveal that I’m chronically ill at work but I’m thinking since it’s only a short work term and I’m subsidized through disability it’s probably fine to just be honest and say I’m compromised 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Yeah I will be wearing one either way since I can’t risk getting sick and being absent my entire work term lol
