Life in a time of coronavirus, Hong Kong edition. My gov't issued reusable 
arrived in the mail. It’s branded the "Cu Mask" bc it has copper and bc "everyone really wants to see each other again." Feels a world away from a series of events just a few months ago... 1/4pic.twitter.com/XPVx30arJr
It wasn't that long ago that the govt banned masks after months of protests. Then,even as the virus was raging through China, officials downplayed the need for masks in Hong Kong. But ppl’s memory of SARS is still raw and the masks came out even before China announced an outbreak
By February, ppl would line up for hours and around the block to buy masks that stores didn’t have. When credit is given to Hong Kong for its low case numbers and success in containing the virus, a lot of that is owed to the people herepic.twitter.com/L9UPO5Ndw6
Back to the CU mask. It's a bit frumpy in design (one person stitched together two to look like a granny's bra and posted the pic online). That said, I’m grateful to be in a place where the people, and later the government, have taken this virus so seriouslypic.twitter.com/HLJbq8pWr5
Copper? Not gold?
Otro uso noble del Cobre. !!!
Doesn’t matter. Most of the people I know won’t wear them anyway. :-(
