This long holiday weekend is expected to challenge everyone’s resolve to stay safe. We talk with Sabrina Paseman of FixtheMask.com about wearing masks, which types of masks work best, and which do not offer the best protection from COVID-19. We’ll also talk about why masks remain the best defense against COVID-19 and what kind of offense it is for people not to wear them. Whether at a family gathering or while shopping on Black Friday, wearing a mask should be considered a civic duty, an obligation to protect yourself and others.
Date: Wednesday, November 25th @ 2:30pm PT / 5:30pm ET.
