I am wearing a mask. Here’s why

Right now it isn't quite the time to fully panic, but neighborhoods and communities will be shut down because that is the nature of a virus. It is susceptible to the economic viability of a population to sustain and be able to take the hit. Someone always has to take the hit, and more often than not it is the weakest that suffer the most. They simply do not have the resources to suffer and take one for ...
