It seems people are tired of using the face mask which is why we see most of them not wearing it now be it in the market, restaurants or elsewhere. Tourists never wear masks even though they are the ones who contribute to rise in Covid-19 cases in Goa. So far as social distancing is concerned this was always difficult to observe due to rush everywhere. Goa reports more than 100 cases of Covid 19 every day. In addition to this, like in the neighbouring states, we too are seeing rise in viral infection cases resulting in cough, cold and fever all of which suggest that we cannot afford to lower the guard. Your newspaper has been advising people not to stop using the face mask. Although it does cause some inconvenience and discomfort and in some cases some side effects, it is still our best bet against infections. It is always better to be safe than sorry.
