5. Shame on whoever flamed you.

All one has to do is watch one video or see one picture of those caregiving in the time of Corona to observe evidence of the need for protected mucous membranes which exist in the eyes as well as other places in the body.

I have to wear eye protection all the time as the result of an autoimmune disease and I have learned to love goggles, oversized protective glasses, safety glasses and wrap around sunglasses. I do get funny looks and the occasional insensitive comment and have learned to take it in stride, flashing the occasional peace ✌ sign when appropriate.

We can't let ignorant acts of oppression, especially in matters of self care and public health, stop us from doing what we feel is right and especially in health care, what's recommended as best practice.

Rock On, at140. Stay encouraged.
