Beav , China is experiencing their second wave from imported sources. Let`s see how good they`ll be at controlling a widespread epidemic like the States have now.

In addition, it is advised to avoid kissing anyone outside your household or who has symptoms of the virus, such as a dry cough or fever.

What if you have an asymptomatic carrier in the household? I don't like this advice at all. NO KISSING, period. Masturbation is OK provided your hands have been washed thoroughly. You guys need to start smelling the coffee and behaving in a socially responsible manner and that also means only one person leaves a household to do shopping. Don't bring the fucking kids to the supermarket, it's uncalled for!

Does anyone know about what percentage of the 4162 people who have COVID-19 because they came back from travel?
whether they knew it or not.

However, one thing is 100% sure, they are the ones who transported the virus to us.

Now that almost all air transport has stopped, community transmission begins.

Masks!

Masks. Was it weird to you guys that medical professionals all over the news discouraged people to wear masks when going outside? The explanation was that particles can still get in from the side of masks so it's not very effective. But I'm thinking at least it can stop the majority of things..
The doctors probably discouraged people from wearing masks because of mask shortages, to prevent panic buying, which totally makes sense. What they should have done is to tell us how to make our own, it's very easy DIY, can make it with t-shirt, coffee filter, etc.

I think one reason why some countries close to china were successful in containing the virus is people wearing masks, like Taiwan, Singapore, HK. What's happening now in Czech Republic is that the government has made mask-wearing mandatory. Of course it's not 100% effective, but it does help a lot, it's not useless. It's not a substitute for physical distancing, which still needs to be done.

I'll make a bold prediction, in the coming weeks, everyone will be wearing masks on the street.

People are wearing the masks more often now here in NY. Sweetspot I agree with some of what you are saying. I would add that the main reason for wearing the mask is to not spread the virus to someone else if you have it. Not necessarily to protect you especially if you are staying at least 6 feet away from people and avoid touching your face.

I agree also with Sweetspot. Mask would also help, like a cone on a dog, not to touch your face directly. But do wash your hand before putting it on and clean mask right after usage.

They probably ask us not to wear mask because of shortage as Sweespot said but also not to give us a sense of invulnerability. They want us home.

Correct. Since so many who have the virus don't show symptoms, in many cases we don't know if people have it or not, including ourself. So the motto should be:
"I wear a mask to protect you. You wear a mask to protect me"

"YOU get a mask! YOU get a mask, and YOU get a mask"

MASKS.

Of course, masks work, this was clear from the very beginning. This is why healthcare personnel wear it. They are not sick; they don’t want to get sick. Another myth is that only KN-95 masks that can catch very small particulates work because the virus size is around 0.1 microns. Guess what? The virus particle alone does not survive for long in air and it is not emitted one by one from an infected person. It is emitted as micro droplets in the size range of several to tens of microns that contain thousands if not millions viruses. It also sticks to particulates in air that are in the micron size range. Thus, any multilayered mask, like surgical or similar, though not 100% protective, will reduce concentration of viruses you inhale. You probably would not get infected if you have a couple of these micromachines (can’t call them creatures). They need to be at a certain threshold concentration to infect. Masks help, period. If you can’t get KN-95, get surgical or examination masks.

Great vid , people need to get inventive sometimes

I reckon that these self made masks even if they don’t fit perfectly are still better than not wearing anything... especially for those that need to use public transportation , I think it’s a must
