Excuse My Mask ... I have a cough

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The other day I went to the grocery store … and the checkout lady was coming down (she said) with a really bad cold … just before I pushed past her after paying for the groceries … a whooping of a cough no doubt sprayed the area …

Geeeeeze … I dropped my head and did my familiar prayer  … “ Dear CREATOR … give me the strength to endure any course I am to take” … but I was sure hoping I didn’t catch a cold …

Oh well …. so much from that … in a few days … from ear to ear my throat and ears began to itch and burn fiercely …  the bug had caught me …. “sigh” …

It’s been pretty rough going for a few days … the cough and pain in my chest was terrible … today is one of the better recuperating days …

But I’m the happiest at my computer in service to the CREATOR …

Nevertheless … I have an opportunity to go to the movies in a couple of days … I’ve already saw the Tom Cruz JACK REACHER move and it was great … but family members are all telling me to go see Jamie Foxx DJANGO UNCHAINED movie … UUUMMMM .. kind of iffy on that …

Now the question is …. if I still have a cough … would it make people more uncomfortable seeing me were a mask (not knowing it’s really to protect them from my cough)? … or would it be more comfortable for people if I just covered my mouth each time I may have to cough … either one I really would have appreciated if the cashier had done one or the other …

I think the Michael Jackson’s public mask style … was not such a bad idea … I’m considering keeping on in my purse incase I see somebody coughing for my own protection …

I really think if any employee in any public service … are sick or just plain-old have a cough … it should be mandatory for them to wear a mask to protect the customers … especially cooks and servers …  even in doctor’s offices …

HERE How can airborne viruses, bacteria affect health?
Bacteria and viruses can travel through the air, causing diseases and worsening allergies or asthma. They get into the air easily. When someone sneezes or coughs, tiny water or mucous droplets filled with viruses or bacteria scatter. Inhaling these viruses or bacteria can spread coughs, colds, influenza and tuberculosis and other infectious agents.

How to reduce the spread of bacteria, viruses

Most often, the human occupants of a home or workplace are the source of infectious diseases. A key step to reduce the spread of disease through indoor air is to practice healthy behavior. Precautions like coughing or sneezing into the bend of your elbow can curb the spread of airborne viruses and bacteria.

To mask-up … or not to mask-up .. that is the question
