Why I Wear A Mask
By wearing a mask, we not only protect ourselves, we protect those around us—family, friends, co-workers, and customers. Please wear a mask in public—it’s up to all of us.

Dr. Markovich
You can carry COVID-19 without any symptoms and pass it to others who aren’t as healthy as you—like a relative or a co-worker. Wearing a mask in public helps protect all of us. We can win the battle against COVID-19, but it’s up to all of us.
