Have an appointment the first week of June
As I watch the provider sites, like following the stock market we know whom has been active and those that have hunkered down during this pandemic. I have a sibling with a compromised immune system. There was a possibility I was going to be the primary caregiver and move in with her. I stayed locked down for 43 days, only leaving my house 6 times. Once things changed and I was not going to be moving in, I went back to the office 4 days a week. I work for an essential biz.
As I was looking for a provider that was low volume, had taken March-May off. Found a provider, I have not seen before, who fit that criteria and just started up this last week with screening. During the screening process we questioned each other relative health and why we took the time off. All good.
Since none of us have lived through a global pandemic before, there is no playbook. We are ALL processing things differently. Dealing with an airborne virus, safety cannot be guaranteed. All we can do is take the precautions that make us “feel” safer. As we know, that is as individual as each of us. Yes, I am one of those sheep that wears a mask in stores because I do not believe in freedom.
Our circumstances can dictate how we react. I was able to work from home, very fortunate, having a compromised family member lead me down a more cautious path. Not judging those that kept hobbying/providing because I do not know their stories. Just my $.02
