Why didn’t these women have each other on the list of people allowed to see them in the hospital? I have to keep a card in my wallet to let my pastor come to visit me, otherwise they won’t let him in. Everyone can do this, are they just so freaking stupid as to not know this?

As a nurse, my duty is to protect and promote the health of my patient. If I see my patient’s O2 level is dropping to a dangerous level because the client is taking off their mask to speak to a visitor, I would say to the visitor “Ms. Doe needs to keep the mask on at all times, please encourage her to do so”.
