5. That's the scary thing

Monitoring this problem the past year, it seems some of their "excuses" are that they are in or have more access to higher levels of PPE than other occupations so they don't believe that they could pass it on. However many of these people are NOT in an actual "hospital" setting where you do see the full N95s and face shields and gowns and whatnot. The nursing homes and rehab places (many also dealing with stroke patients) have never needed that high level of protection and I expect trying to get any of them into the habit of using the "real deal", and staying in it all day, is probably futile.
