Since we know that a basic cloth mask or scarf doesn’t do much to keep you from getting infected, do you think maybe we are being encouraged to wear masks to help keep asymptomatic people from spreading the C19 virus?

That's my take on it.

Sewing a bunch this weekend. Found an alternative to regular elastic, which is in short supply - extra thick extra large hair elastics.

We realized that last night also. But before we get around to that, I'm using a cut up t-shirt and a binder clip.

I have one of these and find it way more comfortable to wear than the alternatives. Would love to wear it out and about, but I wonder how much it would freak others out.
I saw a guy at the grocery tonight wearing one of those. I thought it was amusing, but that was probably just me. Thanks for the link!
