Joe Biden told ABC News he would be heeding CDC advice by wearing a mask the next time he goes out in public as a way to mitigate his risk of contracting COVID-19, despite President Trump not following the advice.
Said Biden: Yes. Look, I think its important to follow the science, listen to the experts do what they tell you. He may not like how he looks in a mask but the truth of the matter is that follow the science. Thats what theyre telling us. So if I go out in public, and I have not gone to commercial places of late I havent gone to my local church
but my generic point is that you should follow the science.

(21,112 posts)I certainly hope he is wearing gloves to set an example. I know not everyone can get them but those that can, should.

(86,897 posts)say that the mask is more important than gloves of you wash your hands after touching stuff and don't touch your face. It enters through mouth, nose, eyes for as much as is known. Gloves can spread the virus after touching many surfaces.
At least that's what I get from the discussion I've been reading/watching.
I have gloves but you can go through a few sets in a shopping venture. Wearing one mask for a short time while away from the house is what I'm going with, keep the gloves handy but wash my hands a lot.

(15,292 posts)big pearly white teeth on it? That would be funny - we need a dose of humor right now - and encourage the rest of Americans to have some creative fun with whatever they are using for a mask.
