Forced to be barefoot in the hospital

This poll is about situations in which the patients are forced into being barefoot in the hospital vs. patients being allowed to wear socks in the hospital. I'm a sock person, so I prefer to keep my socks on in the hospital or wear the socks that the hospital provides. I'm just curious of how many people were allowed to wear socks in the hospital verses how many patients were forced to go barefoot at a hospital. Please leave a message in the message area.
