My hospital system in Delaware reinstated masking for employees in clinical settings (only employees, not patients) at the beginning of January. This was due to the rise in cases of “flu, covid and rsv.” They did the same last year. My question has always been what is different about flu and rsv now in 2025 compared to say, 2018 when we were not required to mask during cough and cold season.

They also sent out the email regarding masking saying it would start 2 days later. So I guess there was something special about the following 48 hours that rendered masks less effective or the patients we were seeing in that timeframe less worthy of protection??

Nonsense policy.

I just heard a PSA to go see the doc if you have covid because there are treatments for covid available. "Sponsored by Pfizer". I thought we were done with this whole mess! I guess not and in more than 1 way it continues on. The brainwashing is so strong.
