    That's the farce with the whole thing. Go into town and 95% of people are wearing a mask. Go into any barangay from 1km outwards and the only people you see wearing a mask are motorcyclists travelling to/from the city. The locals in the barangays are the exact same people that you see in the town. The whole thing is done just for show.

    And I am agreeing with you - the whole control process worldwide IS farcical. So I am pointing out the need for people to take care of themselves, as I always have done.

    Don't disagree NMRN. Just pointing out the farcical nature of the whole thing.

    So if people who do NOT show any health protocols are in barangays spreading the virus to each other (although at present there is no evidence of local transmission in Neg Or.) and then taking it into the city, a very good reason for sane individuals to mask up and care for your own health when you are out and when things come into your home.

    Hence why many said, including you, that face masks are essential (along with eye cover) - stops a virus-infected hand touching your mouth, nose, eyes - as well as the protection from aloft virus particles within droplets or not.

    And who goes around touching other people's noses! :smile:

    my suggestion is to focus on decontamination of your personal self and items when you return home. i would treat anything i handle outside of the home as contaminated. it is probably true that virtually all people behave differently if they are being watched vis a vis when they are alone. studies show that is even true of doctors and nurses in hospitals

    Just wondering....

    How common is the use of shared press board type clipboards? Even though I have not been to a restaurant since early March, I hear that some businesses (not just dine-in places) are handing out questionnaires on shared clipboards. Wondering how effective hand sanitizers are in this situation? When holding onto a shared object for several minutes? Or any type of shared object. How often to reapply sanitizer?
