Mask-wearing: Does culture play a role?

Last week I was interviewed by a very enthusiastic group of students from Cardiff University’s School of Journalism about cultural issues relating to mask-wearing, passing on my knowledge about some of the issues relating to Japan. The interview features within a series of interview clips in an article that has now been published. You can see the full article, Mask-wearing in Cardiff: Does culture play a role? here. You can also see the clip in which I appear below.

I enjoyed the interview and was particularly impressed by how much they wanted to learn about the subject and things beyond the limits of what the interview was about. We need more students – and definitely more journalists – like this. I wish them well with their continued studies.
