The debate over whether to wear a mask to reduce the spread of coronavirus is over for the CEO of the South Dakota Healthcare System.
Calford Crab Benhoft of Sanford Health wrote to staff in an email that he had experienced COVID-19, but had returned to work and would not donate a mask.

“I’m not interested in using the mask as a symbolic gesture,” he added, CNN reports.

The CEO’s email went away frustrated by the inconsistent public-health message around the mask. According to CNN, in his email, he said that for those who did not sign the Kovid-19, the mask is a sensible choice.
This did not stop Sanford employees from complaining about Krabenhoft’s condition.
An anonymous nurse told CNN, “It’s horrible to read this from the hospital’s CEO. “
