Obviously it’s not going to stop everything from getting out - but if it catches the droplets that could make a big difference.
I'm really starting to think masks are the key, assuming people are contagious when they don't even feel sick, which is looking likely. Everyone already wears masks in Vietnam because of the pollution and they've hardly had any problems.

Just look at the contagion curves of the Asian countries. They're all wearing masks.

Again, a country of 96 million that borders China and trades more with China than any other country went 22 straight days without a new case of C-19 infection.

Sure would be nice to just give everyone wearing masks in public a try for a while.
