In a sudden twist, all New Yorkers have now been advised to cover their face at all times while outside

New York City mayor Bill De Blasio spent his Wednesday confirming that New Yorkers are now recommended and should exercise covering their face at all times while outside. According to De Blasio, the move comes after a study examined pre-symptomatic cases in Singapore that has led officials to be a little worried.

Officials advise that coverings should be homemade; can include scarves and other clothing articles but should not include surgical masks or N95 masks.

“You can create your own version, be creative, put your own decoration on it,” De Blasio said, adding the coverings shouldn’t be “professional” or “something we need for our heroes.”

“These face coverings shouldn’t be seen as an invitation to come closer, they should actually be an indication to keep six feet’s distance,” said city health commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot.
