Problem
I had a cold, slept all afternoon, and went out in the evening, still sneezing.
My Singaporeans friends told me, "You should wear a mask when you have a cold."
"Why?"
"Because it stops the droplets going everywhere when you sneeze or cough."
You can buy face masks in the drug stores.
I have seen masks on faces in Singapore and Korea and other Asian countries.
I had previously moved seats when people alongside me were coughing and sneezing. Now I see whey you should wear a mask.
In England, a health campaign went: Coughs and sneezes spread diseases. Catch them in your handkerchief.
An alternative is to catch them in your mask.
