Canadians should wear a mask as an "added layer of protection" says the Canadian Chief of Public Health. As COVID-19 spreads, you might find yourself under varying layers of protective measures when occupying public spaces. A man wearing a mask while under an umbrella at Sugar Beach relaxes in the summertime, protecting himself from the virus and the sun. While an eerily empty University of Toronto Scarborough campus uses garbage bags to keep students 2 meters apart amidst rising infection rates. Layers of protection, whether purpose-built or ad hoc, have changed the way we both work and play during these times.
