Want people to keep their distance from you? Wear a mask.

Even a painter's dust mask will do. People see it and will avoid you like the plague.

The only problem is that you'll probably get some verbal abuse from morons.

1. I have a rubber trump mask. I wonder if that will work. n/t

[MineralMan]

2. It might.

[redwitch]

5. I wouldn't wear that. People will beat you up! NT

6. It might not keep the viruses away but people would certainly keep their distance.

Anything even slightly resembling Trump makes me run away screaming.

3. Yep. You don't know if they're protecting themselves or they are sick and out and about.

4. Verbal abuse? I point my keys at them (my keychain is pepper spray)

Serously.

[ooky]

12. I carry pepper spray in case of morons too.

Seems to be a better solution than carrying a gun.

7. Great idea!

I crocheted a mask from a pattern posted here. It may not work on viruses, but I'm sure it'll work on people.

8. Add a pair of blue nitrile gloves and it will work even better.

[wryter2000]

9. I have some latex gloves

I bought a box years ago so I could seed and peel a bunch of jalapenos.

[SWBTATTReg]

10. I laughed. I have a better idea, but you might get some abuse, I would just cough and cough if...

you want people to stay away from you. Cough cough....cough cough...

11. This is so true.

I've been making masks to send to healthcare workers. Decided to start wearing one myself any time I step out of my apt. One neighbor saw me coming down the hall and backed in to his apt very quickly.

I saw church people come in to visit another neighbor. They didn't wash their hands at the washing station when they came in the building, as instructed.

I guess Jeebus cares about them, but to hell with everyone else.
