Masks are Essential
 

We are at a situation where the virus is still out there with 57,994 cases in this state alone.
New research and reports have shown not only the elderly and children being vulnerable, but also people below the age of 35.

Masks are very essential because in the long run, they will keep not only the most vulnerable amongst us safe but also Communities of Color, who are disproportionately affected by this virus.

Wearing a mask, is simply a minor inconvenience that can be taken on for the betterment of the community. Scientists everywhere agree that it cuts down the spread of the virus and I firmly believe that such a simple requirement should not be ignored.
Let us be safe than sorry.
