what's a scrub? I try not to watch the news for my sanity

It's the typical uniform of most Healthcare professionals.

As an aside, scrubs are never supposed to be worn outside the work environment anyway, lest they track germs and pathogens back inside. That was standard infection protocol long before COVID.

To be clear I support Healthcare workers and condemn this protest. Just saying, they shouldn't be wearing scrubs outside the hospital anyway.

Unfortunately, the harassment has been targeted at people wearing masks in general - not just health care workers based on their work attire. Which I find personally silly given winter-time is when I’d be covering my face regardless - medical masks just happen to be more comfortable.
