When you non mask wears have to go in for surgery then would it be alright if the surgent and the rest of the OR Staff didn't wear mask also? Don't get me wrong I don't like wearing them but will if asked to if it is only to make someone else feel better about it.
I really would not care if they did not. It has not been proven they do anything during surgery either. BUT, I don't do surgery on the street or in my car LOL. My health has nothing to do with someone else's feelings.
