Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, believes "the most powerful weapon we have" against the novel coronavirus is wearing face coverings, washing hands and "being smart about social distancing."

"If we all rigorously did this, we could really bring this outbreak back to where it needs to be," Redfield told the Journal of the American Medical Association via video on Tuesday.

Coronavirus cases are surging across the U.S., from California to Texas to Florida. More than 3.4 million people in the country have been diagnosed with the coronavirus and over 136,00 people have died.

To Redfield, a major key to controlling the pandemic is wearing masks.

We’re finishing up week #3 of mandatory masks in indoor places (stores, restaurants, etc). COVID cases are still going up — not down. Surprise!

;-)

The Influenza virus has been with us for decades. Nowhere in any of the literature dealing with that virus is there any mention of masks as effective.

Speaking of influenza, I have also asked those ardent mask-wearers on social media--"The flu kills, despite a vaccine. Why haven't you worn a mask previously? Why is COVID-19 different?"

I usually go on to point out that most people have likely, indirectly been a vector for the influenza virus, and that they've likely caused a serious hospitalization or death as a result.
