Unless you are very close to other people, contracting a virus outdoors in the fresh air and sunshine is very unlikely. But if wearing a mask makes you feel better, then go right ahead.

My question to everybody is what do you do with the mask when you take it off? I've seen a number of women pull a mask out of their purse to enter a store, and then put it back in their purse when they come out. If its a homemade mask, you should wash it before you wear it again. If it's a disposable like those used in hospitals, you should throw it away. The same goes for gloves. One wearing, and done. To do anything less, you risk cross-contaminating everything your mask or gloves touches
