A couple in Texas was told not to wear masks when visiting a restaurant with ayear-old son who has cystic fibrosis. After refusing to take their masks off, they were asked to leave.
Natalie Wester and her husband, Jose Lopez, who are both fully vaccinated, said that an employee at Hang Time, a restaurant in Rowlett, Texas, told them several times to remove their masks when they were out with their immunocompromised son, Austin, last week. They've been choosing to still wear masks in public to protect their child.
"Cystic fibrosis is a very life-threatening genetic disorder, and if my son were to contract COVID he would need to be hospitalized," Wester vented on Facebook.
The owner of Hang Time Sports Grill & Bar, Tom Blackmer, confirmed to local station CBS 11 that no masks are allowed in his establishment.
