Update on the North Carolina anti-mask bill: The committee has come to an agreement on a compromise bill.
BUT the compromise bill contains problematic language, saying you can wear a mask to "prevent the spread of contagious disease."
This sounds like you can wear a mask if you already have COVID, but not to prevent yourself from getting it.
Masks are a key prevention tool. People should have the right to wear them to protect their own health.
