At some point, I want to leave my house. Like, maybe in June?

A face shield sounds like a prudent way to reduce one’s risk while also being able to interact with others. Why not let citizens buy them after shortages end?

They don’t reduce risk of infection in day to day situations. They’re specialized medical tools used in appropriate situations.

Also, please put on a mask and leave your house. You aren’t on permanent curfew. Do some essential activities each day.

Of course I put on a mask, and I rarely leave the house. I was not aware they were not helpful when generally interacting with others - obviously then I wouldn’t want to wear one.
