Vulnerable patients shouldn't have to ask health care workers to mask up properly. HCWs should know that their noses are connected to their lungs so that masks below the nose are ineffective. Patients are correct to be frustrated and concerned by this apparent lack of knowledge. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked, spoon

I'm always glad to see you; even if you're sick, even if you need help. Of course I wish you could always be happy and healthy but I'm here for you in the good times and the bad times. I'll try to help you turn the bad into the good as much as I can. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked, spoon

Beware of the sunk cost fallacy in any medical treatment; it's okay to discontinue/alter things that aren't working even if you've put a lot of resources in. Some treatments take a long time to show success, but avoid chasing things that clearly don't work down the drain. emojis: black heart, blue heart, masked, spoon

Generally speaking, doctors only see health-privileged patients when they're feeling their worst and chronically ill patients when they're feeling their best.
