Misconceptions About Wearing Masks
As many as 40% of people infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 may have no symptoms, which means when they talk, cough, or sneeze, they can still spread the virus in the form of respiratory droplets (Dr. Chu, Stanford University.) When you wear a mask, you protect the people around you in case you have COVID and you do not know. When everyone wears a mask in public, it will help to limit the spread of COVID-19.
