What was initially solely a health precaution has become a fashion accessory that will be long-remembered as the most important iconography of the COVID-19 era. I'm talking of course, about face masks.

Wearing these in public isn't necessarily a new thing. People have worn them in densely-populated, densely-polluted megacities for years. Beijing would be the first to come to mind. After the spread of coronavirus, more and more cities across the world are seeing face masks hit the streets.
