Masks protect everyone (if they’re properly worn... even where I work, in a nursing home of all places, you still see people leaving them off the nose) - they do provide a physical barrier against germs so the argument about them providing a false sense of security is just dumb. I know you’re not making that argument yourself, BreakForTheLight, but it really gets on my nerves when people disregard the science (and even common sense) behind controlling the transmission of any virus.
Things aren’t quite that bad where I live, it doesn’t feel like anything’s going on but I still go shopping and socialise as little as possible, staying at home the majority of the time. Online grocery shopping has been a lifesaver for my family.
