(1/6) A #SaturdayMorning thread this #MemorialDayWeekend to clarify some of the confusion on masks and face coverings. Follow along to get the facts & remember – I wear my mask to protect you, and you wear yours to protect me. 👇 Image
(2/6) Originally most health experts thought those who were asymptomatic (e.g. no fever or cough), had low risk of having/spreading #COVIDー19. @CDCgov now estimates 35% or more with #coronavirus DO NOT have symptoms. cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
(3/6) Wearing a face covering has always been more about protecting your neighbor than protecting yourself. But the more people who wear them, the lower the likely spread and burden of #COVID19 in YOUR community. What’s good for your neighbor is also good for you in the long run! Image
(4/6) For most people over the age of 2, wearing a mask is completely safe. As an anesthesiologist, I wear a mask all day long to protect my patients in the operating room.

Here are some @CDCgov tips on who should wear one, and how to wear it properly! cdc.gov/coronavirus/20… Image
(5/6) Don’t have a face covering? Check out my video how-to using just a t-shirt & rubber bands.

Not your style? @HHSGov has you covered with 3⃣ different styles you can make at home today.
(6/6) As our communities reopen, wearing a face covering is something we all can – and should – do to protect each other. So no matter how you’re spending #MemorialDayWeekend, wear a face covering when out in public. Comment w/ a selfie & encourage others to do so too 👇 Image
