Stimulus Payment
You do not need to apply for your stimulus payment. If you filed taxes in 2018 or 2019 and had a return deposited electronically, the IRS will use the same information to automatically deposit the funds into your account. Funds should be available by the end of April. Most adults will get $1,200. There will be an additional payment of $500 for each child age 16 or under. You can visit the IRS Get My Payment page to check the status of your payment. https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

How to make a mask
U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams shows you how to make a homemade mask from a bandana and two rubber bands. A handkerchief and hair ties will work as well. Remember, to test it's effectiveness, put on your mask and try to blow out a lighter held one foot from your mouth. If you can blow it out, the mask needs to be thicker. You can add a normal paper towel folded in quarters to the center of your bandana, repeat as necessary until you cannot blow out the lighter.
