Re: OT: The Things We Take for Granted....
This post got me thinking... As some of you may know, I'm a doctor. When I was in medical school I was working in Surgery with a resident who thought she knew it all. As we went into a room to change the dressings on a surgical patient who had hepatitis (liver disease caused by a viral infection), I placed a splash guard on my mask and handed her one. She laughed it off and proceeded to change dressings and got fluid in her eyes. She went on to get tested and thankfully didn't contract hepatitis from contaminated fluids, but this definitely took her down a peg or two. She later apologized to me for having been so haughty and forever after observed simple medical safety precautions.
