As more than 100 people have been infected with coronavirus in Italy, naturally Albanians began taking action. We are very close to Italy and flights to and from Italy are daily. As a result, at least the streets of Tirana are filled with masked faces seeking to guard against the virus.
When used properly, surgical masks can prevent infections transmitted through the respiratory tract.
Some things to keep in mind when wearing surgical masks. ?
Choose the right measure.
Wash your hands before applying the mask
The surgical mask should wrap the face well.
Most surgical masks are designed in three layers. The outer layer repels liquids, the middle layer serves as a barrier to bacteria and the inner layer absorbs moisture. Masks that are not built according to this model are not recommended as they do not effectively protect against infectious diseases.
Usually, the coat colored with the fold should not have contact with the face. The metal clamp must rest on the bridge of the nose,
The mask should cover the mouth, nose and chin.
Tighten the metal clip to the nose so that the mask does not move.
Try not to touch the mask. If you touch it, wash your hands with plenty of soap and water.
Surgical masks are disposable. If you remove it, you can no longer place it. Be careful when removing it. Do not touch the outside as it may be covered with bacteria. Pour into a covered bin and wash your hands immediately.
