In search of protection, people are ready to hide behind anything - from scarves and shawls to various models of masks. What to do to maximize the benefits of the mask?
Wear and change correctly
You cannot use the mask longer than 2 hours! It should cover both nose and mouth at the same time. If you want to talk on the phone or scratch yourself, you cannot pick it up. Do not touch it and wash your hands with soap and water before using.
Dispose of properly
If the mask becomes wet, you need to replace it. Do not reuse it! When removing it, do not touch the front, only the elastic bands on the sides.
Dispose of it in a closed container and remember to wash your hands with soap and water.

Remember to wash your hands after visiting the street or public places for at least 20 seconds! No water? No soap? Be sure to buy a disinfectant that you can use to wipe your palms.
Try to avoid crowded places and, of course, contact with sick people.
