8. I have seen a lot of store workers wearing Clear face shields with no mask.

The mask is what keeps their virus in. The face shield would help if someone coughs on them, but does nothing to slow their spread of a virus or even slow down their breathing in someone else's exhalation.

Several different stores I saw this when I was out last week. I try to stay in, but you have to buy groceries and supplies occasionally.
