SIR, – With 2020 behind us, and 2021 underway, I am disheartened by the number of people NOT wearing masks in public.

Outbreaks in NSW and cases in Victoria are further proof that people need education about disease control.
Think of masks and gloves as non-sexual condoms, keeping you and your family out of hospital. Children should be kept at home, and wear masks in public.

If you travelled, please, get tested.
