In the midst of the coronavirus outbreak, some celebrities have found themselves leaning on the familiar comfort of the Instagram selfie with their face masks, but according to experts, they won’t do much

Experts at the CDC fear the virus won’t be easily contained due to its rapid spread throughout Asia and into Europe, and since the majority of cases present with mild symptoms or none at all.
So far Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, and Bella Hadid have all posted images of themselves wearing various manner of probably sold-out face masks, presumably to ward off infection, accompanied by vaguely anxious captions. The intention behind each of these posts remains opaque.
According to experts, face masks won’t do much, except prevent the spread of disease for those who are already sick. Just because they go on faces and faces go on Instagram does not mean they are empowered to do anything but create a compulsively clickable loop of empty signifying. Handwashing, however, can help protect yourself and others from all kinds of viruses, which is great for me, because I want to see some really sudsy celebrity hands.
