You didn’t think of just washing your hands and maybe using a knuckle to touch the screen instead of going HN pedant on the $7/hr worker?

Besides, I would think shooting mucus debris in their direction by talking is worse than using a cleaned knuckle on a screen far away from them.

So, in your expert medical opinion, given years after the fact without any understanding of the illness in question... You think that your advice that "you should just have washed your hands" is such amazing advice that you think it's worth writing here?

What are you hoping to gain? And even if you were right, as I said, I had a high fever. It's not like I was thinking clearly. Are you trying to feel morally superior to someone who was in gravely ill?
