The number of coronavirus cases in the United States would plummet if at least 80 percent of Americans wore masks every time they went out in public, a new study finds.
As Vanity Fair reported, a soon-to-be released study that was put together by University of California at Berkeley’s International Computer Science Institute along with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology finds that widespread facial coverings would be a widely effective way to combat the spread of the virus. De Kai, an American computer scientists who served as chief architect of the study, said that widespread mask wearing is one of the reasons that Japan has had a drastically smaller number of infections and deaths.
The study, which Vanity Fair noted will be submitted to a major journal, found that mask wearing could have a similar effect in the United States.
