While the efficacy of masks worn to prevent the wearer from contracting the virus has not been proven, their value in preventing wearers who are infected from easily spreading the virus seems clear.
It we all wear masks, maintain social distancing, avoid touching our face and wash / sanitize our hands frequently: how can the virus then continue to spread?
We have to do something to slow it down until a vaccine is available, or else the death toll will spike, hospitals will run out of capacity to effectively treat patients, and we'll be the world's poster child for inept governmental / societal response to this clear and present danger.
