Halifax, let's wear our masks

7/8/2020

We can keep our curve flat and help prevent further lockdowns that hurt our small, local businesses by wearing our masks when we're out in public and can't maintain two metres distance or when we're in crowded indoor spaces like grocery stores, buses, public buildings, etc.

When you wear a mask, you reduce your chance of getting the coronavirus by a little bit. More importantly, however, you reduce the risk even more that you could transmit it to others. We care about our community, our residents, and our small businesses. Let's help them by keeping the curve as flat as possible!

Here are some resources to learn more about the effectiveness of wearing a mask:
