  In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, World Health Organization (WHO)
recommended the use of face-masks to combat the disease. A fraction of the
population has been vocal about their disapproval, especially on social media.
Motivated by the need to understand their opinions, an international online
survey in English was shared to the community /r/SampleSize in Reddit. The
results obtained were summarized; binomial and multinomial confidence intervals
were constructed for variables of interest; Pearson's Chi-squared test was used
to test whether relationship exists between two variables of interest. A
second, smaller survey was conducted to cross-validate the results. The study
demonstrates that despite the digital polarization of public opinion, opinions
from both sides of the spectrum are not ubiquitous.
