The wild thing is, thet back then, people knew that they were protecting others from themselves by wearing one.
I feel like most people who wear masks today, wear them to protect themselves from catching a virus
Did you research this or are you just guessing?
I was indeed guessing but there is an interesting read
https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/masks-spanish-flu-1918/
‘public health leaders rebranded personal care as a display of patriotism and duty to make men to wear masks.’
‘In 1927, Edwin Jordan’s definitive study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association as a series of articles and then as a book, determined that masks were effective when worn by patients already sick or by those directly exposed to victims, including nurses and physicians.’
Thanks!
Seeing as the photo implies people are being arrested for not wearing them. I doubt they did it out of their kindness of their heart.
Not sure why I am getting downvoted for saying most people probably wore masks to not get arrested.
yeah there was a whole mask vs anti-mask movement then as now. the anti-maskers then were just as dumb
I guess there were anti-mask dipshits even then.
Prove right here how masks protect from viruses! Let me here it

Propaganda was why it didn’t work. The same propaganda you started listening to.
