MASKS: Consideration appreciated

In response to K. Johnson of Rathdrum, according to the CDC and Panhandle Health, MY wearing a mask protects YOU. YOU wearing a mask protects ME. My wearing a mask doesn’t protect me from you, unless it is one with filters.

I am a senior with health risks, so I really appreciate seeing others wearing masks, as I do every time I go out, which isn’t often because there are too many people who aren’t wearing them.
