50% people in India still do not wear a mask

Recently, Government had conducted a study in 25 states on the mask wearing habits of people. The study has brought into light that 50% of the people still do not wear a mask. This is not all. It also showed how a majority of the population wears mask. While 50% of the people still do not wear a mask, 32% of the people cover their moth but forget to cover their nose. Worse are the 10% of the people who wear a mask only to cover their chin and even worse is the 1% population that rests their masks on their necks. This means that only 7% of the people wear mask and rightly.

Currently, India is the worst hit country by Covid. As the second wave hits, covid cases and death tolls are on a high rise and a new benchmark is crossed almost everyday. In such times, it is very necessary that people follow simple guidelines such as wearing a mask correctly, maintaining social distance, avoid touching face, etc to break the chain.
