Hey friends! I'm happy to see so much learning and discussion about masks as one way we can help flatten the curve. There seems to be a lot of conflicting info so I just wanna share some thoughts on it! /thread

- BEST CASE, stay home if you have the privilege
- If you go out, wash hands BEFORE + AFTER
- If you go out to populated places, wear a mask, ie: groceries
It's because you DONT KNOW if you're infectious + asymptomatic! If you're not medical front lines, even a cloth one'll help.

Here's a nice resource for how they limit spread! https://twitter.com/triketora/status/1244861537912832000?s=20

PLEASE DO NOT HOARD N95 MASKS, medical workers need access to these! Instead try home-made alternatives for your everyday needs. This CDC site shows some options: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diy-cloth-face-coverings.html
