Recommendation **NOT** Requirements
 

NO MASKS - according to the WHO, masks should not be worn unless you are sick. Masks are otherwise useless and should not be a "requirement" but is reasonable to suggest as a recommendation left to the individual to decide regarding the circumstances. Masks were not required during the first three months of the coronavirus and the ridiculous executive order states that children under the age of 10 do not need to wear as mask. So, with this whole mask analogy - a child not wearing a mask could become infected somewhere and infect everyone they come into contact with once they get home and the rest of the family takes off their masks. Ludicrous.

Wash your hands regularly. Use hand sanitizer. Social distance to a degree and you won't get sick. The same thing has worked for centuries and will continue to work with coronavirus.
