In an effort to encourage people to wear masks and/or face coverings as a protocol to prevent the spread of COVID-19, New England sports figures have teamed up with the Massachusetts Medical Society (MMS) for its #MaskUp campaign.
In a video that was tweeted on Wednesday, society president Dr. David Rosman was joined by Patriots special teams captain Matthew Slater, Celtics center Tacko Fall, Bruins defenseman Zdeno Chara, Red Sox pitcher Martín Pérez, and Revolution defender Brandon Bye.
The campaign’s message is simple: wear a mask, wash your hands, and stay six feet apart.
