Back for a few while I do my breathing treatment...

Since I work in a healthcare facility where others have in fact been infected around me...I want the best protection I can manage for myself. Even if it's a struggle to breathe. Frankly if someone has that much difficulty breathing in a mask then those folks should be staying home & relying on services to bring food & whatnot to their home as opposed to them going out & risking their own health just to breathe. Quite frankly I have yet to personally witness anyone who has been unable to "draw a breath."
Being unable to draw a breath would mean that the mask was capable of asphyxiation. That guy that died in that crash had no reason to have his mask on in the car. If he couldn't breathe he should've taken the mask off first. So you can't blame everything on the masks. Sometimes human error is at fault more than anything. But people are too quick to point fingers when they're afraid. This link talks about co2 levels.

I find all this back & forth on COVID information frustrating. Why is it we can't get any answers that are the same? Why is it one side says yes this will happen & another says no this won't happen?
This crap is coming from scientists & doctors all over the world & none of them are in agreement. Why is that? Is it just lack of knowledge or is there more going on that even the scientists & doctors don't know yet?

*Sips coffee* Another day at work ahead of me. I'd rather stay home & sleep some more but that doesn't pay the bills. *Giggles*
Our county is up to 327 cases of COVID. The state of KS has been gaining at least a 1000 cases a day. Or pretty close to it. One county alone has been seeing an increase of 400 a day. The governor is talking about going back to phase 2 of our reopening plan. She reopened way too soon. She's talking about taking the power back from each individual county & redoing to the mask mandate. Maybe the penalties will be stiffer. I don't know. At this point all we can do is sit & watch everything unfold.
I'm trying to stay calm & continue to wear my better masks. I keep the bandana one on in case I need a break from the other one but I've been trying to continue to wear the safer masks.
We have 7 people out right now. Three on vacation. One had surgery. One is out with some sort of stomach issue & we have no clue when that one will be back. One with Covid & one that is still waiting on test results. It's been more than a week.
My rent went from $475 to $500 a mo. Landlord claims it's due to higher ins. & taxes. I don't know about that. It's ok though. I can manage it now. At first I would've struggled when I moved in. But I'm ok now. Not sure if he raised the neighbors rent. She's on disability & a fixed income so I wonder.
Well...have a good day.

Morning.
Another long day ahead. Maybe worse than yesterday. Oy!
I think I have another sinus infection. I usually get a couple a year. I wanted to get a dr appt set up & get on top of this one before it made me sick like the one in March did. I'm not off till Monday so I got an appt for then. I get them frequently due to allergies & the inhalers I have to take cause sinus issues too.
Our grill has been closed for 3 days because we had no one to run it. We're supposed to have it tomorrow but I don't know if it will be full service or not. Meanwhile they kept ordering chicken for some dumb a** reason. So I will need to check the date on the last box. May need to take it to the freezer before it spoils.
Sometimes I wonder about our new director. He's not very good at problem solving certain issues. For quite some time he kept telling us that if the food was on the invoice then it was there somewhere in the order. But many times it wasn't. He was getting charged for stuff he didn't get. He refused to listen so I quit telling him. Fine with me if you wanna throw money down the drain. Whatever buddy.
Well time to go. Have a great day!!
