Scenario 1: Your city has had an outbreak of COVID-19 cases. In response, your county’s health authority has issued an mandating that all adults and children over the age of 2 wear face masks in all public indoor and outdoor areas.

Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper either in support of or against the face mask to try and persuade the public to better understand the issue based upon evidence-based public health resources.
