The fact that he is using the term sterile as a negative thing in a hospital is evidence enough that he is a genuine brain genius
Not gonna lie there’s lots of studies that greenery really does help avoid that institutionalized white room effect and things such as ICU psychosis, but also there’s a reason why potted plants were removed from patient rooms because yeah plants can carry a ungodly amount of bacteria. Still would say the most dangerous place in a hospital are bathrooms family members use after raw dogging into Meemaws iso room without PPE.

believe this a million percent
my mom was in the hospital for a few weeks a couple years ago, and I got to see how my family members washed their hands
it was horrifying
I am early 40s, nobody under 30 spent any time in that room, they should all know better
The funny thing is the aesthetic and safe option is steam punk copper rails/handles/surfaces everyetc.
Copper kill bacteria and cleans itself. But it’s not used due to costs.
You’re disregarding the psychological damage of being in a steampunk hospital
Me, in a neck brace because even slight movement may snap my neck
“Oh no, that looks like one of them new steampu-”
Cringe
Snap.

The tarnish is often seen as unsanitary, though it’s not, and unsightly, so the upkeep can be a lot.
In fact a lot of brass and copper decorative fixtures are clear coated to prevent oxidation, but then they also prevent the antiseptic properties of the metal as well.
Nosocomial infections are a really big deal in hospitals too. I wouldn’t depend on copper alone to kill bacteria; how well does it deal with getting bleached down?
For the OP, if some snot-nosed child wiped his hand on the giant greenery wall, the bacteria flourished on the wall, then the AC brought a bunch of germs into an area for the immunocompromised then you’re not gonna have a good time
What is it about western Anglo brain that makes you feel so privileged in your ignorance as to be comfortable making these grandiose and absurd statements that could truly only spring from the mind of a simpleton?
Imo it’s the individualist dogma of everyone being entitled to their opinion and the associated implication that everyone’s opinion is valid and worth hearing.
I read this, and I’m suddenly realizing that I’ve never truly felt entitled to my own opinion, but also have never felt like anybody’s opinion really matters, and that explains a lot of why I don’t get along in society.
I’m a stupid dumbass. Why doesn’t everybody else also realize and admit what a fucking idiot they are?
How can you be an adult and not know why scientific and medical stuff is white?
Scientific and medical stuff is white
Sensible hospital designers reddit race scientists
