Our first message is the best mask you can wear is the one you can get. We don't want trying to seek out a higher quality mask to be a barrier from wearing what’s most easily available to you. We know that masks unequivocally protect us against respiratory illness, airborne respiratory illness, which is why we issued the mask advisory last Friday.
Can you walk us through the symptoms of RSV? How would you know that it's RSV and not the flu or COVID?These are respiratory viruses. They mostly affect the upper and lower respiratory tract. Every person who gets sick can be affected in slightly different ways. But if you test negative for COVID and you are still feeling sick, it makes sense to go get tested for flu because we have a treatment: Tamiflu. If you take it within the first 48 or 72 hours, it can actually reduce your risk, reduce the duration of symptoms and keep you out of that severe flu episode, which you're at risk for especially if you're older or have an underlying chronic health condition.
