Is this thing an overreaction, or shall we take as many precautions as possible?
I was just driving around the clean, smog free city they call Tainan, and EVERYONE is wearing a mask. Now, don't get me wrong, there is a lot to be caught out there,but, it's hard to take anyone seriously.
I walked into our local Tesco and stumbled across two workers on their hands and knees scrubbing the hell out of the floor with a toothbrush. The Taiwanese aren't known for their cleanliness, so I just had to ask what the hell was up.
Well, in broken English it was explained to me like this:
On a side note...
Mum sent me an email today telling me the latest. "Wash your hands".
"Thanks mum, I'll try to remember".
Can someone please put some "North American" perspective on this one for me???
Thanks
