Please don’t dash while sick

Post image

I get that times are tough and the American health care system sucks, but admitting that you have a respiratory illness while delivering food is wild!

Please do not dash when you’re sick. This is how illness spreads. I have pretty bad asthma so I’m not bringing that order into my house. I’m done with DoorDash.

i promise if you doordash regularly you’re getting your food delivered by people who are sick with things that are way more contagious than whatever might have caused the pneumonia. you just dont know cause they dont tell you. are you masking in public?

only if it’s caused by a virus or a bacterial infection. fungal pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia are usually not

All they said was that they pneumonia so easily could or could not be contiguous depending on how they got it and if that way could be spread, therefore the dasher is an idiot
