What's That, You Say? You Have Contagious Explosive Diarrhea?

Today we took a field trip over to the health department to get TB tests for work. After loudly asking why we were there, the nurse then said loudly to other people who worked there that we needed TB tests, and to go to the table to register for our TB tests and then to follow her into the back room for our TB tests.

Aren't medical things supposed to be kept relatively private?

All around us were people getting their flu shots (and therefore doing their best to speed along the SuperFlu, complete with own cape. I am anti-flu shot. Don't do it!). I wonder how many people there thought we were getting tested for TB because we had TB, not because we had to do it for work? How many people rushed out of there and quickly scrubbed the insides of their lungs?

If only I had thought to start coughing. If only.
