Who all is wearing a mask when they go out ? These are hard times for a Coroner trying to keep a adequate supply of body bags. Need some kind of data to base supplies off of. Lol good thing I had ppe on hand at the office because you can't get it now. Our DEM is not able to get enough to cover the small fire departments. And you can forget about getting any test kits that is not happening. We have 43 positve cases in my county and No deaths at this point 536 negative. Anyway about those mask you can use mine because I'm not going to wear it unless I'm taking samples to send for testing. This is the craziest thing I've ever had to deal with lots of uncertainty and speculation. However 36000 tested positive for the flu and around 120 have died in Arkansas alone this year. I was always told pick your battles that just may be true again. Good luck stay safe

Does very little good. The only ones that give protection are the hospital ones that health care workers need. Frankly it was stupid for government to all of a sudden decide yeah use them. After saying they didn’t help for the last month A feel good measure to pacify the frightened public imo

I have been wearing my bandana for 11 days now. It just makes good sense doing everything you can to stop the spread. A mask will not keep you from getting it but it will help to keep others safe.

IF the hospital are wearing them only with virus and they do no good why wear them. I wear one along with gloves. I will guess at one point most people we get the idea. But it will take a few thousands to die first. JMO

Went to Walmart yesterday. There was about 50-75 people in the store. One was wearing a mask.

I went to one local favorite water holes Friday for fried fish carry outs.. They've set up a drive up pick up deal and have a loyal enough customer base that it's working well for them.. So I get in line and who pulls in behind be me but county Corner in his marked truck.. I told the wife hope he isn't here to pick some Body up LOL! I was going to get out go talk to him but was raining. He actually just lives mile down the road and is a regular there too...Known him for years..

As for wearing the mask I'm kinda not so sure??? I see people wearing them don't mind that they do.. Do think that them saying people should is more to make worry warts feel good?? but that is just me.. I just hope it don't turn into one them things where people hate on you for not wearing a mask...Already have had some of my Asian friends take crap just for being Asian..
I can't and wont tolerate that..

A mask is not 100% foolproof but there is no way that it cant help because they do filter particles . You still have to be conscious of touching your face with your hands . There have been studies that showed the number one point of infection for the common flu is the corners of your eyes where people rub them after touching a contaminated surface .

I went this route.

I have one the wife made me out of a bandana. It's actually pretty cool. I do service work and have to go into multiple homes and businesses every day even today. I wear it when I go to the door for their piece of mind. I do it in the businesses because it seems to make the employees more comfortable. I doubt seriously it does any good as microbial items can easily pass through in both directions and it is not treated with anything that would kill the virus. I do however consider the other folks so actually it is just out of respect for them.

I had a couple boxes N95s on hand (not hoarding free shipping on 5 boxes 3 years ago) cause I wear them while combining and in spring when planting gave them to my son He's a Nurse and is required to wear them although they're not available at his hospital

Might be a good time to rob a bank.....lol
