this ridiculous charade.... at the eye doctor, where they are trying to get a close fit between my face and the vision apparatus in order to get an accurate prescription, the mask interferes in the close fit, and it causes the lenses on the apparatus to fog up. So, they tell me to lower my mask under my nose. That still doesn't work. So, lower it below my chin. I guess that means they aren't too worried about my germs. But they are wearing their masks. Everyone is wearing one. We are not allowed to enter the office without our face covering. They don't care if I wear a cloth mask, an N95 or a surgical mask -- just so long as my face is covered except when checking my vision with the apparatus. Then I'm not contagious, kinda like how at the restaurant you could not spread germs while sitting at the table, but be sure to put that mask on before you stand up to go to the restroom.
Jill I understand. Commifornia is really insane about the mask bs. I only go to the doctor if it’s absolutely necessary. Get a Fake Mask! And, surgical masks have plastic in them, which you’re breathing in. The whole charade is absolutely RIDICULOUS.
And you can get others that look like real ones. The difference is that you can BREATH!
I’m totally against masks and would never wear one. I had to have cancer surgery and I had no choice. And I was pissed, but I was also scared…of the hospital. It was a really fucked up situation. God has my back.
You do NOT have to do anything other than to say NO.
There is no law to it. It is illegal. Tell the person that tries to put one onto you that he/she will be held personally responsible for enforcing something like that. They will back down.
Them physically touching you without your consent, while putting an unwanted medical device on you, I believe, can be construed as assault. Police can be called. Charges can be made.
Depending on WHERE you are, that’s like talking shit to your waiter (I was a waitress and I have respect for those that give me a service) before you get your food. Some people are this stupid.
But yet, we still have to wear masks while going to medical appointments.
don't wear one... tell them you will pass out, or puke, or get a migraine. I 'did not comply' & they didn't force me to put it on.
I too couple of months ago refused to wear mask at dr office.
I’ve done that and they won’t let me have my appointment.
I read your post & got inspired.

Ugh, time to wear undies on your face.
They still won’t let me in for the appointment. I’ve tried that.
Change doctors.

Renee Marie is right. They make mesh masks that look like "real" cloth masks.

Yes, He does!
Or more to the point, any doctor telling you to mask is a quack and shouldn’t be your doctor.
