love that all doctors across time and space and training have a universal Oh Shit You Are A Walking Biohazard voice for when a patient mentions a symptom offhand as they're walking out the door that actually is a symptom of a wildly infectious public health crisis level disease that u need to be quarantined for

#i don't know how to describe it but it's so distinct. even the most soft spoken people i know Have it #it's the 'oh shit you have TB voice' it's the 'oh shit you have measles' voice u know it's like u are abt to become patient zero of a local #epidemic etc etc #it's only happened to me twice and both times i've just been awkwardly standing in the corner of the room while the doctors do a bunch of #tests i've never heard of while muttering this better not be what i think this is... under their breaths #me like so...can i leave or like do i need to be dunked in lye and pumped full of penicillin before i can go outside #the body exists outside itself
