Update on wearing masks:

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/31/fauci-mask-recommendation-coronavirus-157476

Epidemiologists from Asia have said from the start that wearing masks could prevent spread. No, they aren’t perfect, but they’re something. I suspected from the start that we were encouraged to, and actually shamed into, NOT wearing them bc it was obvious there aren’t nearly enough.



I knew this was going to happen.

They say one thing at one time and another thing later. I do not believe this is new information to them and its frustrating.

I understand why they said it. They needed them for everyone in the medical field. But on the flip side I feel like they put out false information. If everyone was already wearing a mask the numbers would most likely be lower.

From the NYT:

”WHEN TO WEAR A MASKWidespread use of nonmedical masks could reduce community transmission. But recommending their broad use could also cause a run on the kind of masks that health care workers desperately need.”

We have been had, people.

Yup. The only reason we were told not to wear masks is because there isn't enough of them. Not because wearing a mask is an overreaction.

Exactly. If medical people are wearing them, then why wouldn’t it help us? I can’t find any now, but I don’t go out that much (once or twice a week to the supermarket).
