Widespread facemask use could shrink the ‘R’ number; prevent a 2nd Covid-19 wave
- Stevvo 6y agoIt's unfortunate the relevant authorities lied about the effectiveness of face masks initially. It may have been necessary to ensure adequate supplies for front-line workers, but lying to the public erodes public trust. Advise people to wear face masks today, and many ignore it as a symbol of defiance.
- js2 6y agoYes, that's unfortunate, but correctable. There is no excuse for the on-going refusal of the POTUS to encourage mask wearing.
