If you refused to wear a mask during the Spanish Flu Epidemic in 1918-1920, they would put you in jail.

$5.00 in 1918 would be worth $85.00 in 2020.

$100.00 in 1918 would be worth $1,700.00 today.

So the fine for not wearing a mask is $85.00 to $1700.00 in today's dollars. ouch

Also, maybe ten days in the slammer.
