Bill Nye urges everyone to please wear a mask.
He’s gone viral but in a good way. A TikTok video by TV’s Bill Nye the Science Guy becomes a social media smash with more than 15 million likes. In it he uses physics, a few props and sound effects to explain how masks work to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
Here shooting down the false claim Covid can travel thorough masks. “Because viruses don’t travel by themselves. They travel in droplets of spit and snot.” As he demonstrates, “When the droplet gets into the fibers of a mask, it gets trapped. This is not that hard to understand, everybody.” And that Nye says is why we have rules about wearing a mask. Carmen Roberts. Fox News.
