Here's my Quarentet .
Soon there will be high end designer masks if there isn't already.
In a few hundred years, they'll probably believe all the masks were a fashion statement.
Actually the facemask-as-fashion-statement was way ahead of the COVID-19 era by probably a few years, in Asian countries (Japan, primarily, I think). Why? Uhhhhhh ... ya got me!In a few hundred years, they'll probably believe all the masks were a fashion statement.
Is that so?It was the Fukushima disaster.
Very interesting, not what I expected.Is that so?
