Each shift in the ER I put on my surgical mask, grab my #N95 from the storage room, and prepare to see patients. I covet my N95 to protect me from #COVID19, but I wear my surgical mask to protect others from me. So why has this act somehow become political? Some thoughts>>>> 1/18
Early in the #pandemic, the CDC did not recommend the widespread wearing of masks. They wanted supplies saved for healthcare workers, and there was no hard science telling us that the public wearing masks was a significant component to stopping the spread of #COVID19. 2/18
The science evolved, as it always does, and on 3 April, in a packed WH briefing room, flanked by the #coronavirus task force, @realDonaldTrump announced that masks were officially recommended, stating that he would not be wearing one. Thus began the politicization of masks. 3/18
