What's this?

LOL - people have been going into work very sick for decades ...


and I was guilty of it many times under the guise that 'I can't miss work today'. Things are different now with the ability to work from home and, of course, COVID. However, professional athletes play with very serious injuries. Do you think they are not going to play in a post-season game due to a fever and a sore throat? Right now they couldn't but that won't go away long term.
