Importance of double mask in Corona period
1/21/2022 11:20:02 PM

Since the emergence of Corona, the use of masks has increased manifold across the world. At present, mask is one of the important and effective measures in prevention from corona. Experts advise wearing a mask to protect against corona. By the way, we should also keep the necessary information about how to wear a mask. Guidelines are often issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) on this subject as the world is currently facing the new variant of Corona, Omicron. In such a situation, the scientific group says that the use of double mask is very necessary to protect against this new and rapidly spreading variant. Actually Hong-Kong scientists believe that the double mask is very useful in protecting against the new variant of corona. Scientists are of the opinion that for people who spend most of their time outdoors during this corona period, double masks are not only effective but also very important. Scientists believe that the use of double masks gives up to 91 percent protection against corona. Scientists tell that people who are already sick should also be positively using double masks. Scientists in Hong Kong believe that the use of a mask keeps the possibility of leakage away. At the same time, this possibility of leakage is reduced to a great extent by the dual mask.
The importance of double masks increases manifold, especially in public places, hospitals and crowded areas. In such areas, double masks prove to be helpful in keeping us safe from corona. By the way, if we talk about what type of mask to wear, then there are many types of masks available in the market. But the use of surgical or N-95 masks is considered better. Experts are of the opinion that using a standard mask gives us more protection from this variant of the corona. The US Health Agency Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using cloth masks over surgical masks. At the same time, the CDC also says that if you wear an N-95 mask, then there is no need to wear any other mask with it. Actually, N-95 masks are standard level masks and they help us a lot in protecting us from corona. This is the reason that this mask alone is capable of combating Corona. By the way, the World Health Organization (WHO) continues to issue necessary guidelines from time to time regarding the use of masks. Actually, in this era of Corona, we should not only emphasize on keeping ourselves but also the people around us safe. As we all know that despite vaccination, the use of masks is necessary to protect against corona, in such a situation, we all need to emphasize not only on wearing masks but also on wearing the right mask in the right way. However, keeping in mind the small things of prevention from corona, we can play an important role in keeping ourselves and the society corona free.
