Masks are a very visible signal of both something unusual and solidarity. So rather than risk compensation, which comes without empirical support, they would likely encourage more compliance with other measures. I'd say Hong Kong and Taiwan signal the latter.

I've just retweeted to you a video which discusses debate around masks. I accept you have a good point of view on this but I baulk at comments like "without empirical support" (for a threat that's been around for a few months) and "likely to encourage" which has no more validity
