Equip outdoor workers with masks

I was taken aback when I saw workers sweeping our streets without wearing masks when the air quality was in the very unhealthy range.
As I had some extra masks with me, I gave these to the workers.
Very unhealthy air quality poses a health risk, especially to those working long hours without protection.
I hope more can be done to distribute N95 masks to workers who have to work outdoors while breathing in very unhealthy air.
