This is incredible! Gosh, if only people were smart enough to actually wear masks and not invoke their "constitutional rights", we probably won't be in the shitshow that we are in today. Kudos to you for making this!

Thanks so much Steven! Hopefully visualizations like this can drive home how wearing a mask protects your entire community, not just yourself.

100%! People need to realize it's not their own wellbeing that they're protecting, but others' as well.
