No, sickness is not a choice, but staying at home to recover IS a choice.

Just came in to work, projectile vomited everywhere then passed out on the floor. Bonus if you could pull off a seizure.

It's only professional ethics to bring whatever bug you have and share it with colleagues.

Sharing is caring.

In this situaution, wouldn't you be worried about incurring medical costs if someone called for help?

Which also is NOT a worry in Europe. In some countries the worst that can happen if you ask for an ambulance that was completely a waste of time is getting fined about 30 euros. Worst outcome I had from visiting A&E was to have to pay for the prescribed antibiotics.
