Sad news - one of my colleagues has Covid-19. He has been teaching in-person voice lessons while wearing a mask properly and taking no other risks. Wishing him a speedy recovery.... <3

Please be extra-cautious out there! While masks help reduce the spread of the coronavirus, fine mist aerosols can still both escape and penetrate them. Loud singing, particularly, is a high aerosol -generating activity which can extend to 15+ feet without a mask. Data suggests that a person can be most contagious 48 hours before the onset of their symptoms and continue to be contagious for 10-20 days after onset depending on the severity of their symptoms. The after-effects of this virus on the lungs can especially impact athletes and singers. Protect each other.

Even dogs know the right way to wear a mask
