Just about the time everyone thinks they can return to life as “normal,” the virus resurges and the death count starts rising again.
The CDC has stated time and time again, that “people wear masks in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain.” CDC Guidance
You would think that it would be obvious to everyone, there’s a right way and a wrong way to wear a mask.
Masks are recommended as a simple barrier to help prevent respiratory droplets from traveling into the air and onto other people when the person wearing the mask coughs, sneezes, talks, or raises their voice. This is called source control. This recommendation is based on what we know about the role respiratory droplets play in the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19, paired with emerging evidence from clinical and laboratory studies that shows masks reduce the spray of droplets when worn over the nose and mouth. COVID-19 spreads mainly among people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet), so the use of masks is particularly important in settings where people are close to each other or where social distancing is difficult to maintain.

Notice that they included “sneezing” in this list. Now think about what happened when you sneeze. Go ahead, I’ll wait.
That’s right, it ends up involving the nose! So not covering your nose 👃 doesn’t help much.
This is the correct way to wear a mask. And folks? We’re all going to have get on board with this if we’re going to get through this together!
