> I've been to mainland China, ... HK ... in the last four weeks. China has close to 100% usage of masks in public, mostly the surgical type. The virus is spreading like wildfire there. Every other country I've visited has markedly less mask usage.
I dunno where you were in HK, but the only place I haven't seen everyone wearing a mask is in Soho. Everywhere else, I'm seeing near 100% coverage.
- _-___________-_ 7y agoI would have put it closer to 2/3 or 3/4 in HK, versus almost 100% in China. I'm usually around Yuen Long, Mong Kok, TST, Central and Western. Has been a week since I was there though. Compared to mainland China and HK, there's way less mask usage elsewhere. For example in Vietnam I'd say it's more like 5-10%, at least in the south.
