The quality of the masks sold on the Internet, and the views of the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the masks.
• This article is neutral. It refers to the sources of many national documents to determine the attitudes of various countries towards masks during the pandemic. In East Asia, the main reason for wearing masks is to protect oneself and others, and to prevent others from contracting the virus because of themselves. In China, wearing masks is closely related to the collectivism of Chinese culture. In the Western world, people generally believe that masks have a certain stigmatization. Wearing masks may mean unhealthy health. At the same time, because wearing masks can easily affect breathing, many people in Western society are more reluctant to wear masks in public. The author described a point of view that in the early stages of the disease, because of the disagreements brought about by masks, many Asians suffered unprovoked attacks and hostile behaviors just because of wearing masks. Such incidents are real, and the author also gives a complete source. The author also described the influence of politics and religion on people about masks, and compared the culture of wearing masks according to different countries and regions.

• The articles cover historically underrepresented or underrepresented groups or topics. For example, in the COVID-19 pandemic divided by countries and regions and the country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there are some small unknown countries Also mentioned. The article also mentioned that masks have even been used as a means to show fashion. At the beginning of the pandemic, industrial production of masks was mainly due to the shortage of masks caused by the pandemic. At the time, the main consideration for masks was function. With the further stabilization of the epidemic, people temporarily relaxed and some countries have begun to restore order, but some people still choose to maintain the habit of wearing masks. Some maternity leave began to manufacture masks with a sense of design to meet people's needs to match other clothing and accessories. This may be unintentional at the beginning, but with some fashion week publicity, wearing masks has gradually become a fashion trend. In Taiwan, China in April 2020, there was a rumor that school students were bullying a boy wearing a pink mask. This rumor has been overturned by the government. CECC officials and various government agencies actively supported and called on people to stop discrimination, "Pink is for everyone and no colour is exclusive for girls or boys. Gender Equality lies at the heart of Taiwan values." This example is a small number, and the article is complete. Reliable sources describe it.
