I can’t afford to be ill.
I live in Canada.
My stance doesn’t have
anything to do
with the financial costs
of medical care.
It has to do with time.
I don’t have the spare time
to be ill.
I don’t WANT to spend
time being ill.
I have books to write
(products to produce),
businesses to run,
other things I’d prefer
to do.
So I take precautions.
I wear a mask.
I wash my hands.
I improve ventilation
in spaces I occupy
(I have a personal air purifier
I hang on an lanyard
and wear around my neck.)
All of this
takes mere seconds.
I can then focus on other things.
And I save countless days
not being ill.
You and I can’t afford to be ill.
Preventing illness
has a huge return on investment.
Make that investment.
