Why Asians Always Wear Masks
If you’ve ever been to any East Asian countries or seen them in pictures or TV shows, you probably noticed hundreds of people wearing surgical masks. They wear them in public transport, cafes, in the street, and in the office. In Japan, Korea, China, and Vietnam, medical face masks have long ago become part of everyday life. Even babies wear them all the time.
It looks like the most obvious reason would be to not catch a cold. Well, technically, it all started with that. Wearing a mask gives minimal protection from germs, though it’s the opinion of some that viruses have no difficulty getting through them. But there are other reasons.

SUMMARY:
- When you’re sick, you’re constantly leaving a trail of germs that stay behind wherever you go: on seats in public transport, doors, and hand-rails. That’s why wearing a mask is a social courtesy.
- Another reason is air pollution. If you ride a scooter, and there are millions of them in Vietnam and China, you’ll want a mask.
- Masks are also effective against allergies. The end of February is the beginning of allergy season for people in Japan.
- In those Asian countries where winters can be cold and frosty, masks can also help to protect the face.
- Asians wear masks so often that they’ve long ago become part of their wardrobe. Young people try to pick out a mask color and shape to match their outfit.
- The Asian masks market is thriving, they spend $230,000,000 on masks yearly in Japan alone.
- Asia is the biggest continent in square miles and population. It’s bigger than the entire surface of the moon by 2.9 million square miles.
- Though China is in 5 time zones, there’s officially only one that they use.
- The Vietnamese New year, Tet, is a birthday for everyone. It starts on the first day of the Moon calendar, which is at the end of winter, and is celebrated for several days.
- The Thai New Year is celebrated from April 13 till April 15, and is the oldest festival that marks the change of seasons.
- The Japanese are the thinnest nation among the largest economies. And this is regulated by law! Japanese laws demand that men’s waist shouldn’t be wider than 33.5 inches. Women’s waists shouldn’t be wider than 35 inches.
- In Vietnam, men grow long fingernails. It’s considered a high-class mark, since only people who don’t do any hard work can manage this.
- “Inemuri” is the Japanese practice of taking a nap during the workday. If you go to sleep in the office, nobody will judge or fire you.
- The famous Japanese dish, “sushi” originated from South Asia and is made from 2 main ingredients of Eastern cuisine – rice and fish.
