Masks Should Be Worn Indoors and Infractions Should Be Enforced
 

Masks have been shown to limit the spread of the disease and are a key tool in mitigating the pandemic. Wearing them indoors should be a standard as long as the pandemic is raging, particularly since transmission is easier indoors than outdoors. In addition, the proper wearing of masks indoors should be enforced. Just saying this is the standard and doing nothing to enforce it is a half-measured response, the type that severely reduces the effectiveness of masks as a means of preventing transmission.
