#masks

I’m all stocked up on disposable face masks again. It was a pleasant surprise to me to see how much wearing a mask helps on days when the pollen or pollution counts are high, too. They’re not only for disease prevention. I would have started wearing them decades ago if I had known they were helpful in those other situations, too. #Masks #AirQuality #Allergies

Wow! Caught a random episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show on TV. In flashbacks, Rob & Laura tell their son Ritchie stories about their wedding. After wacky antics, Rob ended up with an "upper respiratory infection" and everyone wore cloth #masks to avoid getting Rob's illness! 😷 So a mainstream TV show from the 1960s had a normalizing, albeit comedic, portrayal of masking up in the presence of a contagious illness. When and why did we ever stop doing that?! Full episode: https://youtu.be/DLZw3vG3S7I
