Public
President Trump said Friday the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
now recommends that people wear cloth or fabric face masks, which can be
made at home, when entering public spaces such as grocery stores and public
transit stations — not only to protect the people wearing them, but also
others in the vicinity.
Trump emphasized that wearing masks in public is voluntary and said he will
not be doing so.
U.S. health authorities had discouraged healthy Americans from wearing
facial coverings for weeks, saying they were likely to do more harm than
good in the fight against the coronavirus — but now, as researchers have
learned more about how the highly contagious virus spreads, officials have
changed their recommendations.
U.S. health authorities have long maintained that face masks should be
reserved only for medical professionals and patients suffering from COVID-19
, the deadly disease caused by the coronavirus. The CDC had based this
recommendation on the fact that such coverings offer little protection for
wearers, and the need to conserve the country's alarmingly sparse supplies
of personal protective equipment.
Still, as the virus spread to every state in the U.S., it has become clear
that people can contract and spread the virus without showing symptoms,
rendering it difficult — if not impossible — to distinguish healthy from
infected individuals without a formal test. So, it may protect other people
who come into contact with the unknowing individual.
And the mask need not be professional-grade to offer some benefit. In fact,
officials say it probably shouldn't be: The CDC recommends constructing your
own cloth mask, so as to help ensure that doctors and nurses can obtain
access to medical-grade surgical or N95 masks amid a widespread shortage of
supplies.
With this announcement, the U.S. is following the lead of a number of other
countries that have been urging — or outright ordering — their residents
to don masks in public. The expanding list includes China and South Korea,
where officials have even taken the step of distributing masks.
And while the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control continues
to discourage the use of face masks, some European countries, such as
Austria and the Czech Republic, have told their residents to cover up their
mouths and noses before entering a store.
This week, the mayors of Los Angeles and New York City also urged residents
to do the same.

发帖数: 499 | 7 CDC一直以来的论点是口罩应该是生病的人戴。这样能防止他们通过咳嗽传染给其他人。
健康的人戴口罩，并不能免受传染。
但是CDC没有考虑到这些健康的人其实他们中间有很多已经被传染只是还没症状。
他们不带口罩就很快把真正健康的人传染了。
肺炎会那么快传染就是因为你分不出谁是健康谁不是。 | f********g
