Andrew Cuomo Issues an Executive Order: In Lieu of Social Distancing, New Yorkers Will be Masked
2020-04-16
[Red State] On Wednesday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced during his daily briefing he’s issuing an edict forcing all New Yorkers to wear masks — when and where social distancing isn’t possible.

Here’s how he put it:
"I’m going to issue an executive order that says all people in public must have a mask...mouth and nose covering. And they must wear it in a situation where you cannot or are not maintaining social distancing."

Andrew explained it’s basically "the same thing [he and others have] been saying from day one."

And that’s this:
"If you are going to be in public, and you cannot maintain social distancing, then have a mask. And put the mask on when you are not in socially distanced places."

#17  We have a few N95 we recycle by spraying with Everclear and then hang up to dry. SARS2 is easy to kill.

#16  Mrs. Bobby has made two on-line purchases of washable cloth masks made by people that ain't making clothes at the moment. The first batch had unicorn fabric; the second batch was more modest.

#12  It'd take more than a mask to make me feel safe on the subway. A hazmat suit would be more like it.

Flu Chic started becoming a thing in the US about two weeks ago.

#8  They lied to us, when they thought it was apocalypse, so that medical workers could have them.

Social distancing and masks were always a belt-and-suspenders thing.

#3  Hysteria continues. Guess things aren't getting any better, are they? But, it seems like just a few weeks ago we were told to not wear masks as they were ineffectual.
