Recordist's notes
Usually when I go to this hospital for a blood test it is full of people waiting. Today was amazingly quiet, only 3 others. Even the nurse remarked on nobody being there. The piercing bleeps were just as loud though and it's remarkable how much low frequency sound is present in hospitals.
