My husband and I are taking the Tauck China trip Sept 25. I am curious about using a mask as someone in another post mentioned. Is this something I should bring and if so what kind do I get and where? Or is it something that will be provided by Tauck? Thank you.

    We visited Beijing last October while touring with Tauck and brought along 3M N95 quality masks. We never used them in Beijing nor on any of our intra-China flights and saw no others in our group wearing them either. We did see a few people on the street wearing some kind of mask but rarely. My opinion, the need for a mask in China depends greatly on the weather and your location and I would rather bring one with me and not need it than wish I had. If you will be visiting a travel clinic to be sure you have all of the vaccinations you need, just ask a nurse or medical assistant if she can give you one. Also, not a bad idea to get a 2014-2015 flu vaccination at least 2 weeks before departure.
