The last two cases allow to verify whether goggles for eye protection (equipment not actually included in recommended public guidelines) further changes common social distancing behavior during a pandemic. The situation is in all similar to the masked case: the distribution is again skewed in the same asymmetrical way, with people distancing beyond the sidewalk max width. Wearing a mask instead triggers this sort of repulsive effect, "pushing farther" people and the skew of the distribution, changing their common behavior so to gain social distance (even by stepping out of sidewalks).	./cache/cord-156291-vnc1iay1.txt	./txt/cord-156291-vnc1iay1.txt
