"Without realizing it, the whole country is starting to adopt the same
habits that furries have been practicing for years. So should we all
just give in and become full-on furries as a matter of public health?
Furry medical workers are quick to point out that everyone should look
to healthcare workers and the CDC for medical advice, not your local
furry. “There is a lot of misinformation still that I see on furry
social media on a daily basis about this virus,” says Chatah, who works
for a company developing potential COVID-19 vaccines.
Nevertheless, this is a community already accustomed to some of the
lifestyle changes we’ve had to explore in the last few months. Many
furries are way ahead of the rest of us when it comes to face coverings
— though it’s important to note that fursuits do carry their own health
risks."
