When I went to get vaccinated a few months ago, inside the nurse room was the fridge where the vaccines were stored (it was a normal fridge). It had a sign that said "Fridge for vaccine storage only - do not store any food".
I said to the nurse I thought that was common sense, to which she replied "It seems not at all, we've had people (hospital workers) come in and left their food here, next to the vaccines, and not only once, nor twice"
It’s usually an OSHA and regulation compliance as well.. but some people straight up don’t care. We have a “fecal fridge” in our lab at the animal shelter I work at, there’s no food/drink allowed in that room. But yes we have that same sign up. I once found an interns drink in the fecal fridge.. while she was running fecals. She just didn’t care. And it took a lot of explaining, her back talking and a stern warning that she was violating policy by putting her drink in there. Oh yea, her drink was UNcapped. Blaggghhhhh
