In South Korea, everyone wears mask. Here's a link to why this country has the most success in dealing with this virus.

@mayofeb2020 here is a link with an article about this:

@sueinmn Is your area densely populated? I can’t imagine them doing that on our street. As I commented once before, the minimum building lot in my town is 1.5 acres so not very dense.

Excellent article on South Korea's actions, Mayofeb. How sad our top leadership did not heed these lessons from early on. I especially appreciated that So. Korea immediately unified its health system to contend with the virus, which Gov. Cuomo has now done for his state of NY.

Also notable to me is that the people there more trusted their leadership and scientists than sadly is happening here in the U.S. This is not a political time; this is a time of crisis where so many on the front lines are daily jeopardizing their own health and that of their loved ones to help the rest of us. I salute all in the U.S. who are doing all they can in whatever their field of expertise to faster bring this pandemic to a halt. We can do our parts by following guidelines and supporting each other through our online connections.
