“”Wisdom” shares my most personal and genuine reason for wearing a mask. During the pandemic, I live with my grandparents. They were pretty much my mom and dad for a big chunk of my life and sacrificed a lot in attempts to give me a normal, carefree childhood. As former healthcare workers, they’re always happy to educate younger generations about the scientific importance of hygiene.”
