Always wear a mask on transit. People are fucking disgusting lol.

The best part, is people wont sit near you if your wearing a mask because they think your sick.

Really? I should totally give it a go some time. Sounds like the ideal life hack for me.

A bit of sniffling helps sell it, but it definitely seems to keeo people away from me. Or maybe i just smell bad :D

Well normal surgical masks are designed to protects others from you, they don't protect you from others.

A KN95 or N95 mask will protect you.

What I find interesting is how many people will be on there clearly sick and not wearing a mask or trying to distance themselves from others. Just selfish people who don't care who they infect.
