Good to see an article calling this out. Temperature-screening might catch a few people who know that they have a temperature (or are just not feeling well) and are going to "tough it out".

Here in the Portland, OR area I've noticed a definite change in how many people are wearing masks. At the grocery store, 2 months ago there were about 5% of the people not wearing masks and they all tended to be men in their 30s and 40s. At convenience stores in more suburban area, I was the only one in a mask. Now it seems like 100% of the people are wearing masks.

Wearing masks, not temperature checks, is what seems to be our best option.
