When I played football I never questioned the need for a football helmet. It was the safest thing to do during a game or practice. We want to do things that are safe with this coronavirus, but we need to be careful in believing they are 100% safe. They are not. Face masks are not that effective, scientifically. The better issue is to cover your mouth with a tissue when you sneeze or cough, throw it away, and wash your hands as soon as you can. I will continue to laugh at people wearing masks who are alone in their cars.
