You're right. We switched our dentist to a practice across the state line in Portland that has surgically clean air after I most likely caught COVID during a dental visit that doesn't have that equipment, has an open floor plan, and doesn't send patients home if they show respiratory symptoms. Someone had a couple of hacking coughs in an adjacent treatment room while I was well into having extended dental work done.
