YES! They did it in many asian countries before. When you feel under the weather you'd go to work/town in the mask not to spread.

Also cold/flu cases are way down due to people masking up and cleaning hands.

A lot of people complain about seatbelts being uncomfortable during driving, and yet its a law to wear them. Why?

That's not a sign of good hygiene, rather a sign of these countries dystopian work laws/ethics, where sick leave is apparently not a thing.

Perhaps you should - if we all did, we'd reduce the spread massively.

Asking people to wear a mask when they feel sick is not the current ask.
