Thanks for the input again Bac-si. Many of the photos I saw coming out of Singapore didn't feature the whole populace,
en masse, wearing real sophisticated stuff but they were masked up. I cannot help believe that mitigated community spread and the numbers in Singapore seem to bear that out.
Possibly a "social impact" question but I wonder how much their culture plays into their cooperation in that matter, and how much the ego-driven rugged individualized nature of ours hinders it.
NB: I do NOT have a 1st Aid Merit badge from the BSA so h/t JJ.
