Is it safe to walk outside

2020-08-23 19:27:38
I have been suffering from blocked nose and have sinusitis for a few weeks. I recently consulted ent and have been taking medication for a few days. Now I have no symptoms and I do not have nose block. So is it safe to walk outside wearing a mask since I am a person having sinus problems. Generally is a person like me more vulnerable to get Covid or weather I'm like any other normal person. Is it safe for me to go outside?
