Original Note:
Masks have always been worn in hospitals by staff to reduce transmission, in critical areas. Research shows that COVID‐19 is mainly transmitted via airborne droplets. A mask doesn't stop the spread, it reduces the transmission rate. No one is forcing one to go the hospital. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7883189/ https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-mask/art-20485449
