    The object is to keep from spreading the bug. Mask will stop infected people from passing corona on but may not protect.. If someone coughs on us, mask may not help as the germs go everywhere. So out of respect for others do everything possible to stop the spread. Read the info on how to protect. The number one is stay away from crowded places and wash hands after shopping and before getting back in car. Then repeat returning home. Cleaners and disinfects. read instructions as they may require to be left on minutes before wiping. Clean children’s hands when they come in. It will be boring until it is over. Do not let it get to you. We are all trying to protect each other. One at a time will not work.
