This is very much a news story. Thank you for sharing it.

Most of us will likely get Covid eventually, and it’s something I find imperative to try to avoid because my wife is heavily immuno-compromised. She is vaccinated as I am, but she would have a high risk of death if I were to bring the virus home to her. There are MANY people out there in similar circumstances (they are dying every day), and there’s no litmus test to know who would be directly and permanently affected by the virus’s toll on their body. For this reason EVERYONE should be wearing a mask. No – masks aren’t 100% effective, but they are effective enough to significantly reduce the probability of transmission by everyone wearing one properly. Transmission is exponential, so the action of a single person, positive or negative, may easily affect many. Wear a mask. Require masks. It’s not difficult, and it does not cause economic hardship.
