Going there soon (taking an Amtrak from Philly). I'm thinking of wearing a mask - is it popular yet? Don't want to be the only weird one wearing it.
Masks only help if you’re already sick. No use in wearing one otherwise. People will just think you’re the one contagious.
Another brainwashed guy. So why would medical workers wear masks if they are useless
The effective mask is n95, of which there’s a massive shortage and needs to go to doctors and nurses. Not the everyday population. Thanks for the presumption I’m a guy. 🙄
Wearing a mask DOES NOT protect you. Literally only makes you look stupid and that you’re the one with the virus. Wash your hands regularly and don’t touch your face.
Too pathetic we are still seeing these stupid post from google and Accenture.... Yes, save you mask for those doctors and nurses. They won’t protect you from those infected. But they are extremely useful to protect those doctors from their patients. Ironic
Uh, what?
You don’t see the irony here? The propaganda told you mask won’t protect you so you have to save those for doctors because they can protect doctors. I am sure a guy from google can tell which case is more severe, right? It can protect you in a much severe situation but can’t protect you in a normal case?
To all of you who say masks don't work - n95 masks work like a charm, as long as they're properly worn.
Yes, and the US already has a shortage, and they need to go to doctors and nurses who are being exposed at high rates.
I hope that’s what they say to the public instead of brainwashing people about wearing face mask is useless. Gov should help those factories to get more masks instead of using lies to make your public exposed to a more dangerous situation
Just do what you want to do! Here is the country of freedom! People won’t judge you by what you wear!
Very little people are wearing it. Probably less than 3% of the people, mostly asians. I have started working from home since two days ago because I think it is so scary that so many people not giving a shit about it.
For all the folks saying only or mostly Asian folks are wearing masks, I am white and I have been wearing a mask on the train and in crowded areas. My immune system is terrible however due to an autoimmune disorder. I have an RZ brand N95 mask that I usually wear in peak flu season regardless though. In recent weeks, I’ve also begun to wear medical/nitrile gloves if I am on the subway. Please folks, use those wet wipes, wash your hands, hand sanitizer, etc. as a person in their late 20s who also got H1N1, I really don’t think I can survive COVID-19 too.
Yes. Wearing a mask keeps people away from you which is good.
Nice name
