FOUR: One good reason to wear a mask

Good grief, this video made me squirm.  Who knew that one word casually spoken like that could spread so much goo?  Ick!


The bad news is that the video currently has 1,500 down votes!  The good news is that those down votes are only 3.8% of the total votes!

Wear those masks, people!  I don't like them either (they're hot and itchy), but they'll OBVIOUSLY slow the spread of this coronavirus.  Speaking of the spreading coronavirus, I think we're about to hit a spike in daily new cases that's higher than anything we've had so far in the US.  The previous daily record was July 24 with 78,976 cases.  If the current trajectory holds, we might smash that with today's numbers.  Curiously, the number of daily deaths is not spiking just yet, so perhaps there's reason for hope?

Remember to pray to God for mercy from this plague.  Carry your lament to him, because he cares about us.  Then put your mask on and save some lives.
