protective gear


Traveling on the LA Metro today (between USC and INCS - Interdisciplinary Nineteenth Century Studies Association conference, admirably run under decidedly sub-optimal crisis conditions by my colleague Devin Griffiths): this fellow passenger had a face mask, a scarf over her face, some kind of head covering, a hat, and a visor.  I'm still not quite sure how she could see out.

In other covid-19 related news, there was a line outside the 99 cent store at 07.53 this morning (it opens at 8), and I swear I saw a USC undergrad wearing a face mask in USC's colors, cardinal and gold.  Now, that's a piece of quick speculative commercial production I'd not thought of ... perfect for March Madness ...
