I understand that COVID19 is far more easy to catch...but, I also read that 80 per cent of people who catch it , recover....but I am guided by CDC and my own PCM...one problem for me is...the information seems to change a lot....mainly about wearing masks....since my last telemed, mask wearing went from optional to stay safe/wearing mask..thanks....just thought I’d throw in my 2 & 1/2 cents.

@robbie1956- To say the least, about COVID-19, it has been a challenging and chaotic ride for everyone concerning all information that has been disseminated to the public. Even the most reliable sources of information sometimes have disagreed, testing has been either unavailable or not done by a well trained and competent technician. Since this is such a new group of viruses without standard guidance for everything concerning it I think that we have to trust our gut feelings as to whether to wear a mask or not.

what have you decided to do, wear or not wear a mask?

I suppose info changes a lot because we are all learning about the virus as well as doctors and CDC. I personally think masks will help if someone is coughing or sneezing but not 100%. I hope this virus burns off this summer. I just want to hug my grandkids!
