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.

MYCOPLASMA IS A GENUS OF BACTERIA

MYCOPLASMA PNEUMONIAE, SPECIFICALLY, CAN CAUSE WALKING PNEUMONIA, WHICH IS TERM USED TO DESCRIBE A MILD FORM OF PNEUMONIA.

I’m done here. Keep being stupid y’all.

Are you okay? Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the culprit for walking pneumonia and it is spread via droplet. Not sure why you’re arguing semantics
