I saw WHO is changing their stance on masks again. I don’t know what the change is, I am waiting for the story on TV. But they have sent a lot of mixed messages. I think their stance all along has been masks only for those treating COVID patients? I don’t even know anymore.
I did a search filtering to the last 24 hours and now I see a bunch of stories about masks helping stop the spread at home. I find that laughable. I’d say the chances of you infecting your family in quarantine at home is close to 100%. The articles talk about wearing the mask before symptoms reducing the spread by 70%. So I suppose if you wear the mask at home and are pulled out when you get the symptoms and test positive and isolate elsewhere, it’s effective in stopping the spread in he house.
So, will people start wearing the masks at home now?
