 A few months ago, we started a "new normality" not only in Spain, but also in most countries of the world. This is because of the coronavirus, a world pandemic that is causing a lot of damage to people's health. The coronavirus is a virus that is easily transmitted from one person to another. Besides, there are many ways to get it, among them, the air. When a person is talking near you, there are micro-particles of saliva that can reach you and infect you. For this reason, the government has forced citizens to wear a mask every time they leave home.

On the one hand, wearing a mask can be very uncomfortable, especially in the summer. There are places like Sevilla or Madrid where it is very hot in summer and wearing a mask makes you feel even hotter and sweat a lot. In addition, many people claim that breathing with a mask is very inconvenient and that they can even get dizzy. Moreover, people who wear glasses have a problem with masks because their lenses get fogged up. Also, recently the government has made it obligatory to wear a mask all the time. However, there are times when it is not really necessary to wear one, such as when you are alone in a place.

On the other hand, the use of masks prevents thousands of infections, and therefore, thousands of deaths as well. According to statistics, if we didn't use masks, thousands and thousands more people would die from this disease. Furthermore, although we may often find that masks are expensive, there are many different models to select from, and we can also create our own masks using different materials. Besides, this virus is something very serious and it is necessary that we all collaborate putting on our masks to try to eliminate it as soon as possible.

In summary, masks are very important at this time and, although they can be uncomfortable, it is very important that we use them. In my opinion, everyone should follow the instructions given by the government and doctors to try to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.
