      I remember that!

      I should’ve been clear that I was referring to only the earliest days of the pandemic. Wikipedia’s summary jives with my memory:

In early April, federal officials reversed their guidance, saying that the general public should wear masks to lessen transmission by themselves, particularly from asymptomatic carriers.
