Sweden BANS masks:
https://www.reuters.com/articl...

Some bullet items from the article:

"...the Swedish Health Agency, largely behind Sweden's no-lockdown strategy, has refrained from recommending masks, citing poor evidence of their effectiveness and fears that masks might be used as an excuse to not isolate when experiencing symptoms....

Anders Tegnell, Sweden's chief epidemiologist, told a news conference on Thursday.

"'WHO is clear that the state of evidence for masks is weak. All studies so far suggest that it is much more important to keep your distance than to have a face mask,' he said."

————————-
Final thought: There has been NO DEFINITIVE EVIDENCE that the virus is transmitted easily in an OUTDOOR environment. There never was. So if you are OUTDOORS, and well beyond the 6-feet spacing, please do not badger folks in the event you see someone without a mask. That behavior is considered BULLYING, and hardly considered "heroic" or "life-saving."
