Please stay safe

Posted by ncteacher @ncteacher, Dec 6, 2023

Effective tomorrow, the hospital system where I see MDs and receive chemo is implementing visitor restrictions and stricter mask protocols due to a surge in respiratory illnesses. I know that there is controversy surrounding some preventive steps, so I won't go there. But I will say to you, my virtual pancan friends, please stay safe out there!...

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

Masking serves to protect those in our communities that are vulnerable. That likely includes many of those reading these comments who are receiving chemotherapy. Following the advice of the medical consensus shouldn’t be controversial. Don’t be cowed in to taking undue risks! Your life is more important than someone’s else’s political opinions.

"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

And a mask doesn't even weigh a full ounce. 🙂

Good luck, folks! Thank you, ncteacher, for the update and encouraging words!
