As the pandemic has extended beyond the initial surge, much has been discussed about the pros and cons of masks vs face shields -- as well as the benefits of wearing both.

Several months ago, we posted this blog, that weighed in on the subject of face masks vs. face shields. Here are a few more articles on the subject

According to an editorial in the Journal of the American Medical Association, face shields reduce viral exposure 96% when worn within 18 inches of a cough and 92% at social distances of 6 feet.

The story also highlights the fact that it is easier to talk, easier to breathe and, in general, more comfortable to wear a face shield than it is a mask. This blog post highlights some of the additional benefits of wearing a face shield vs. a face mask.
