masking will be extra important.

Masking is something we should all be doing during cold/flu season anyway. I noticed during COVID that I stopped catching colds because I was always masked up when we went out in public. We still mask up when we go to the doctor's office or anywhere we will be inside in a crowded space. This will be extra important during flu season and especially if we can't get vaccines this year.
