Sophia Bush makes a political statement with face mask as she does grocery shopping on her own after holding hands with mystery man

She’s been seen with a mystery man lately.

But Sophia Bush braved the grocery store on her own on Thursday.

The actress, 37, was seen stocking up on food in West Hollywood, where she made a political statement with her face mask.   

‘This was preventable’: Sophia Bush was seen Thursday stocking up on food in West Hollywood, where she made a political statement with her face mask

The mask read in all caps and bold white font, ‘This was preventable.’ 

Sophia carried two shopping bags as she made a brisk exit from the store, her hazel eyes containing an air of determination. 

The actress wore her glossy brunette locks down, a striped sweater, cropped jeans and a stylish pair of loafers. 

Keys tucked conveniently into her pocket, Sophia likely had her sights set on her car as she darted out of the shop. 

Loud and clear: There was no missing the bold statement on Sophia's face

Sophia has been using her platform to urge fans to do their part during the pandemic.  

On Thursday, she shared a screenshot of two people debating the CDC guidelines on face masks along with this poignant message, ‘Nothing else to add here … though I really wish I’d had flyers of this exchange printed out to hand out to all the folks refusing to wear masks in LA this weekend, though that would’ve compromised responsible physical distancing. Ugh. 

‘HEALTHCARE WORKERS AND FOOD SERVICE WORKERS ARE DYING — at disproportionate numbers to the rest of us!! — SO PUT ON A GD MASK, Karen. It’s literally the least you can do. There is nothing hard about it. Your freedoms aren’t being infringed on.

‘You’re being asked to do your part, which you should jump at since you claim to love your country. Or does that not apply across the board? Because if it DOES … wait for it … MASK UP. Oh, and science is real. Period. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. #ProtectHealthcareWorkers #ProtectFoodServiceWorkers #MaskingForAFriend.’  

Meanwhile, Sophia seems to have found love during the pandemic.

The star has been seen out several times in the company of a dashing mystery man, whom she was spotted holding hands with the other day.
