The nail tech tells Allure how disappointed she is in the customer's reckless behavior.

nationwide, COVID-19 is still very much an ongoing pandemic. Different states require different precautions of their citizens — some have mask mandates, some don't — and depending on the phase they're in, businesses have different limitations on how they can operate.

But a nail technician named Taylor recently shared a since-removed Facebook post with a screenshot of a text-message conversation she says she had with a customer. In the screenshot, shared withby Taylor, the client wrote, "I feel really bad and should not have shown up for my appointment but I desperately needed my nails done! I tested positive for the virus two days ago soooooo please quarantine yourself.

Taylor replied, reminding the client not only that she is immunocompromised, but that she would not have accepted her appointment if the client had revealed beforehand that they'd had any COVID-19 exposure. "I asked you before you even got here if you had been exposed to the virus and if you have had it at any point," she wrote.

The client, however, appeared to believe the condition of her nails justified exposing her unsuspecting manicurist to the highly contagious novel strain of coronavirus, offering more of an excuse than an apology.

Taylor says, “This client has been reported to the proper authorities and I'm leaving it to them to help me handle this situation properly.” But in the meantime, she can't — and wouldn't — work.AllureLet this serve as a reminder that no matter how bad you think your unmanicured nails make you look, knowingly exposing another person to COVID-19 makes you look way worse.

Why are some people with coronavirus asymptomatic — and why are they so contagious?Why are some people with coronavirus asymptomatic — and why are they so contagious? New research sheds light on asymptomatic transmission is 'the Achilles’ heel of COVID-19.' Even if 95% of the population is asymptomatic or show mild symptoms, 5% represents 16.5 million with severe symptoms and if 5% of those die, it represents 825,000 Americans. Physical separation and masks are the only game in town till we get a vaccine with high efficacy. Absent from all the scaremongering is the fact that this was an engineered bioweapon. I can only imagine the desired outcome.

The Marshall Project: 'Prisons are not closed systems' due to staff, new admissions“It’s easy to think of prisons as being closed systems, but that’s really not the case,” Katie Park of The Marshall Project says of U.S. prisons experiencing widespread COVID-19 outbreaks. Oh well. Give them a mask and they should be ok. Problem solved The time has come for harsh truth. The AVERAGE age of death from COVID is 75. It is not a threat to 0-65, and healthy. That sounds cold, but it is fact. So why is the Nation shut down? It is a LIE. Don't let these vile criminals out. Simply give them masks and solitary confinement until this all passes. That's what they deserve, as anti-social lawbreakers.
