INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – As new coronavirus variants spread, some health experts suggest using two masks could be better than one and like many things during the pandemic, there are differing opinions.
A recent News 8 Twitter poll shows 76% of those who responded voted “no” to wearing two masks while 23% voted “yes.”
Gina Logan from Columbus, Indiana is one of those who voted “yes” and says she started double masking three weeks ago wearing first a cloth mask that has three layers and then the disposable mask with the fitted metal.
“I try to follow what the public health experts recommend and once they started talking about the variants and suggesting double masking, I started doing it,” said Logan, who says she wears her masks to work and doesn’t remove them all day.
