KU Docs Advise COVID Mask When Watching Kansas City Chiefs Playoff Game

Another pandemic playoff season elicits medical concern over worsening COVID infection rates.

Dr. Dana Hawkinson with the University of Kansas Health System said people should try to be outdoors as much as possible if they’re going to the game Sunday.

"Certainly another thing you can do is wear your mask,” he continued. “That's always an appropriate thing to do."
