There have been many famous dogs in history⁽¹⁾. One of them is Hachiko, a dog remembered for his loyalty to his owner⁽²⁾. Hachiko was born in Japan in 1923 and was owned by Hidesaburo Ueno, a professor at Tokyo University⁽³⁾. Every day Hachiko waited for Ueno at Shibuya station and the pair walked home together⁽⁴⁾. One day in May 1925, Ueno died suddenly while he was at work⁽⁵⁾. For the next nine years, nine months, and 15 days, his faithful dog continued to meet the train his owner used to take every day⁽⁶⁾. At first, the station staff did not welcome him, but gradually people understood his loyalty and began giving him food and treats⁽⁷⁾. Hachiko did not stop waiting for Ueno until his own death in 1935⁽⁸⁾. There have been films and books about Hachiko, and every year there is a ceremony to commemorate him at the railway station in Tokyo, where he waited so faithfully⁽⁹⁾.

People across the country are being advised to wear face coverings in certain circumstances when out of the house, to help limit the spread of coronavirus⁽¹⁾. In England, it is compulsory to wear one on public transport and from 24 July it will also be compulsory in shops⁽²⁾. While medical face masks and respirators are prioritized for health and care workers, you might want to try making your own face covering, wherever you live⁽³⁾. Here's our guide to different types and step-by-step instructions on how to make them⁽⁴⁾. Whether you're handy with a sewing machine, like cutting up old t-shirts, or just want a quick fix, the principles are the same: the more layers of material the better, and the masks need to fit snugly around the face, so you can breathe comfortably⁽⁵⁾. One study has shown that the best materials to use are tightly woven cotton or twill, natural silk, or quilted cotton material⁽⁶⁾. But you can also make do with what you have around your home⁽⁷⁾.
