    This article says 89% of the US population has worn a mask when leaving home in the last week.

    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/89percent-of-americans-wear-masks-in-public-as-the-coronavirus-pandemic-persists-poll/ar-BB15YDVk?ocid=ientp

    Not in my 'hood.

    how could they possibly know that?

    It's a poll. 89% of respondents said they had worn a mask in public in the last week. I'm skeptical.

    Yeah, me too from what I'm seeing, more like 30%. Some people are protecting their necks and chins with a mask, not their nose and mouth though.

    75 new cases in Victoria today with heaps of Victorians travelling to NSW for school holidays. I’m genuinely very concerned.

    NSW here... I wish they'd close the border, we don't need a second wave here. It's not looking good in Victoria at all :(

    It’s terrifying. I have no idea why they’re not closing the borders!

    Hanibani and slimgirljo - I am in SA.

    we are going to open our state borders on July 20th.

    Nobody I have spoken too ( and I mix with a lot of the public at work and they all have something to say about this topic) is in favour of opening borders to non safe states.
    Bubbles between SA, WA, NT - yes - but thats all.

    Steven Marshall, our premier, has today said the opening to states like Victoria may be reviewed and is not neccesarily going to happen as planned.

    I hope not.

    Nothing personal against Victorians but no point is letting it spread to other states.

    I love that our premier said to stay away from people from Victoria. Not sure how you’re meant to vet every single person you come across to find out their origin.
