I think something people, even healthcare providers, simply do not allow for, is that to be chronically ill/clinically vulnerable right now is an overwhelming amount of stress. If you encounter one of us and we're having a bad day, it's probably because we're afraid of being *permanently disabled* because *you're not wearing a mask* because *you don't care if we get sicker*. If I seem snippy, it's because I *have to be there* even though you've coughed 4 times and cleared your throat 9 times.
