Madison, Wisconsin — Coronavirus COVID 19 is rampaging the human world, (CDC, World Health Organization, Madison, Wisconsin-Dane County Public Health).

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention just issued a recommendation for use of cloth face coverings, "especially in areas of significant community-based transmission."
 
At a delivery here of an oxygen concentrator — that takes oxygen from room air, and filters this vital gas to people for respiration — a local medical supply business manages to be both lifesaving and funny.

On the sides of a UW Health Home Medical Equipment and Supplies (Chartwell Midwest Wisconsin) van is the iconic Bucky Badger.

This truck (above-right, and below) features Bucky wearing a yellow cloth mask to display solidarity with public health and active measures by fellow citizens keeping us all safe.
