00:00We're advising New Yorkers to wear a face covering when you go outside and will be near other people.
00:09So, let's be clear.
00:11This is a face covering.
00:13Again, we'll talk about the details in a moment, but it could be a scarf.
00:18It could be something you create yourself at home.
00:21It could be a bandana.
00:22It does not, not need to be a professional surgical mask.
00:27We don't want you to use the kinds of masks that our first responders need, that our health care workers
00:33need.
00:34Don't use those.
00:35I can't be clearer.
00:36Leave those alone.
00:37Leave those to the people who need them the most who are saving lives.
00:41But you can create a face covering with anything you have at home right now.
00:46The reason for this guidance is because the studies are showing that some asymptomatic people, some pre-symptomatic people, appear
00:54to actually be transmitting this disease.
00:56We don't have perfect evidence.
00:58What that means is when you put on that face covering, you're protecting everyone else.
01:03Follow us exactly about it.
01:03I love you.
01:03Bye.
