This topic is about healthcare workers. My point is that I don't expect healthcare workers to wear one every day during their full shift. I only expect them to wear a mask when around at-risk individuals (i.e. CDC guidelines for healthcare workers), or consistent with hospital/clinic guidelines, or ideally when asked to by a patient. If someone is wearing a mask, I expect them to distance themselves as much as is reasonable so that person feels comfortable (that's just common decency imo).
That's what I'm responding to. Feel free to wear a mask whenever you want, that's fine. Don't expect others to do so unreasonably.
That applies a thousand times more to healthcare workers.
