over the matter. I'd certainly not like to be considered a "Karen," but I owe it to myself and my patients to ensure I don't contract COVID-19, despite being fully vaccinated as you can imagine. So, you bet I am assertive about it if they get in my face or try to rip it off. Fortunately, I've only personally seen that in an area of CO far distant from mine. Is THAT a "Karen?"*
