Asymptomatic infected people do shed the virus. They can infect someone who may become ill or die. There’s no excuse for not wearing a mask if you’re not advised by a physician that doing so is harmful. The “mixed” messages ended months ago when concern for the availability for front line health workers was a concern. Perhaps everyone will finally get the message that masks are necessary since a prominent person finally tweeted out a picture of wearing one and encouraged everyone else to do so.
