It doesn't really matter, ebcause it applies same to all countries, so it doesn't explain why Americans need to consume 4 times more water per capita (3794 litres) than Germans (855), while Czechs for instance even half of the Ger

No, they are not. I've lived in China for years and only very small minority of people worn masks against pollution prior COVID. I've also travelled all around Vietnam for weeks and it was extremely rare to see someone wearing mas
