I genuinely wonder if the use of masks is the biggest factor in stopping the transmission. When I went to Asia mask wearing was common everyday as a protection against transmission/pollution. It was almost even a fashion item. But here in the US, when the outbreak happened and I went grocery shopping with a mask I was stared at and given fearful looks as if I had the virus already.
