Wearing a face covering in public is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Still, not everyone is wearing one. A new study offers some insight into why."In particular, just by looking around, it was quite obvious that maybe there were some gender differences," said Valerio Cabraro, a researcher with Middlesex University in London. Cabraro teamed up with the Mathematical Science Research Institute in Berkeley, California to survey roughly 2,500 people, half men and half women, about wearing a face covering out in public."We did find men are less likely than women to state that they wear a face covering anytime they leave the home, when engaged in essential activities and when around people outside the house," said Cabraro.When asked their reasons for not wearing a mask, a few answers stood out.The survey showed clear gender differences in the answers, with more men stating that wearing a face covering was shameful or a sign of weakness. "Wearing a face covering is a sign of weakness, wearing a face covering is shameful and the stigma associated with wearing a face covering is preventing me from wearing one," said Cabraro.The survey also found men are more likely than women to think they will not be affected by the coronavirus. Whether wearing a mask or not, psychologists say seeing other people out in public who are not wearing a mask can affect how safe you feel."I think there’s kind of a fear of individuals feeling vulnerable having a perception of being in fear by wearing a mask, that wearing a mask does for some people resemble I’m afraid, I’m vulnerable," said Dr. Apryl Alexander, a psychologist and associate professor at the University of Denver. Alexander says most people have spent the last 60 days at home, missing important events or milestones in their lives, and are eager to get back to normal. This desire to move on from this sense of loss can affect whether people feel inclined to wear a face covering while out in public. "If I see people not wearing masks, for me that communicates, ‘Do you care about my safety and my wellbeing and the safety of people here?’” said Alexander. “And then I think for some people they might think, ‘Well is it safe? Is this all blown out of proportion? Is the danger not really there, that this person feels comfortable not wearing a mask?’"Alexander says she hopes both men and women adhere to the CDC guidelines about wearing masks out in public and that the exhaustion they feel from having to quarantine doesn't give them a false sense of safety during this time. 2628

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sixty-five years after 14-year-old Emmett Till was lynched in Mississippi, the U.S. Congress has approved legislation designating lynching as a hate crime under federal law. The bill, introduced by Illinois Rep. Bobby Rush and named after Till, comes 120 years after Congress first considered anti-lynching legislation. The House approved the measure on Wednesday, sending it to the White House. President Donald Trump is expected to sign the bill, which the Senate unanimously passed last year. Rush, whose Chicago district includes Till's former home, said the bill will belatedly achieve justice for Till and 4,000 other lynching victims, most of them African Americans. 703

We heard a lot about flattening the curve during the beginning of the pandemic. It had to do with making sure hospitals didn't get overwhelmed with patients sick from the virus.Stay-at-home orders and canceling elective medical procedures were necessary. Now, there's a second curve researchers are concerned about flattening. It has to do with what's expected to be a rush on the health care system when all those procedures that were put on hold get rescheduled.Researchers at Johns Hopkins University are studying what's happening in real-time. They are also able to point to some past events that might give them an idea of what could happen.In the case of Ebola, patients didn't come back in for elective surgeries and treatments right away.“You started from very low but then very, very quickly that rebounded at a very surprisingly fast pace,” said Tinglong Dai, a professor at Johns Hopkins Carey Business School.So, as more states restart elective procedures, the curve and demand on the health care system will go up and researchers suggest if not prepared, it could catch them off guard.Plus, with concerns about a second wave of the coronavirus, there's potential to reach capacity.“On the supply side, you could have nurses getting sick, doctors getting sick and in fact you may not have enough testing because even now we don’t have enough testing,” said Dai.The research is looking at what's happening right now in Johns Hopkins dermatology with nearly all skin cancer treatments on hold.They hope to come up with the best models to flatten the curve on elective procedures to help reduce the negative implications on patient outcomes and added costs. They hope to have the papers ready by January. 1725

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inmates at all 122 federal correctional facilities across the country are no longer being allowed visits for the next 30 days, in response to the new coronavirus. Officials tell The Associated Press that effective Friday, the Bureau of Prisons is suspending all visits. No federal inmates or Bureau of Prisons staff members had tested positive for COVID-19, as of Friday morning. The plan to temporarily suspend visitation, curtail staff travel and pause inmate transfers is the result of concerns for the 175,000 inmates in BOP custody. Staff members who work in areas with “sustained community transmission” are subject to enhanced health screenings. That includes having their temperature taken. 728
