#WhyIMask - Nebraska Health Care Association

Share Your #WhyIMask Story!

The Nebraska Health Care Association is encouraging you to share your reason for wearing a mask as the positivity rates for COVID-19 reach record highs across the state. #WhyIMask is a social media campaign aimed at highlighting the importance of protecting others and reducing the risk of spreading the virus.

“Wearing a mask has been proven to reduce the spread of COVID-19. While people can decide whether or not to wear a mask, we urge you to remember our individual actions and behaviors have a direct effect on real people in our communities, especially those residing in long-term care facilities and their families.”
