that wearing non-medical masks can help to stop the spread of COVID-19. In a press conference, Tam said, “Wearing a non-medical mask, even if you have no symptoms, is an additional measure that you can take to protect others around you” especially in places where social distancing is “difficult to maintain” such as on public transport or at the grocery store.
