As we watch COVID-19 cases in the United States rise, I am filled with great sadness. It is a tragedy that wearing as mask has become so politicized that some refuse to wear one and thus put us all at risk.
The role of aerosols in the transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 has been established, read this Science Perspective article.
In order to save lives the American public needs to realize that wearing a mask actually provides them with more freedom! The more of us that wear face masks, the less this virus will spread and the faster we can get back to the normal lives we all so desperately want.
But don’t just take it from me. Watch the interview below with Dr. Jonathan LaPook on #StarsInTheHouse. He does a wonderful job clearly describing why masks are so important, how they actually represent freedom for all of us, and many of the other strategies our country needs to take in order to safely ‘re-open’ our society.
