--the rat tail's where it's at
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

Psychology
"Surge capacity is a collection of adaptive systems — mental and physical — that humans draw on for short-term survival in acutely stressful situations, such as natural disasters. But natural disasters occur over a short period, even if recovery is long. Pandemics are different — the disaster itself "

There was an outbreak of several coronavirus cases at a hotel among staff and guests in Switzerland.
Health officials found that only people who wore plastic face shields were infected. Those who wore a mask, or a combination, were not.

Australian medical figures have strongly suggested that the plastic face shields are much less effective than masks.

Where is the SCIENTIFIC evidence that masks have any effect on the spread of the virus. This is all non-scientific conjecture but it is still spread around as fact. What other measures were taken or not taken?
