CDC May Be Recommending Face Coverings For All
You might want to pull out an old t-shirt or bandana and start making homemade masks, or facial coverings.
Apparently, the CDC (Centers For Disease Control) may soon be recommending facial coverings for everyone in public, during this coronavirus crisis. A Federal official reportedly anonymously told the Washington Post that the CDC may, indeed, recommend that everyone wear masks. Of course, they are not recommending medical masks, so desperately needed for our professionals in the field, but rather the cloth masks you can make yourself.
The CDC needs to review the recommendation, so that the public doesn’t get a false sense of security from the masks, and perhaps not follow the physical distancing rules currently in place.
Have you YouTubed how to make your own mask yet?
