- White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci has been one of the highest-profile voices of authority urging all Americans to wear a mask when they venture outside, face coverings being regarded as one of the only tools we have to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
- However, he doesn't necessarily think you should stop there. If you can, Dr. Fauci thinks we should also wear eye coverings like googles or glasses where possible.
- For now, they're the kind of thing that only some health care workers are encouraged to wear. However, Fauci thinks there "might" come a time when that recommendation is widened.
This far into the coronavirus pandemic, everybody knows by now -- whether you agree with this guidance or not. Wear a mask in order to curb the spread of COVID-19. It's simple enough, and in lieu of any kind of national mask mandate ... well, we kind of have one anyway, right? Most every retailer you can think of, along with restaurants, air carriers and more now require their guests and customers to wear face masks at all times. Still, we probably don't need to remind anyone that this recommended practice hasn't exactly been met with universal acceptance throughout the pandemic. Irrationally virulent anti-face maskers keep going viral for their refusal to wear face coverings. Along these same lines, over the last couple of weeks or so, Delta Airlines has put more than 100 people on a kind of internal no-fly list over their refusal to follow instructions in the airplane cabin to wear a face mask.
So, we're barely adequate as a nation right now when it comes to wearing face masks, to keep ourselves from spraying the virus everywhere we go and into the personal space of people we come into contact with. But White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci ... let's just say, if he had his way, all of us would be wearing something else, too, in addition to our face masks, when we leave our houses.
