Wisely Use Masks

The recommended mask is a medical mask, yes. Like maybe people already know that it has been used by health workers. Because this mask is made in such a way that it can block, block, filter particles with a size smaller than 0.1 micron.
Well, above from the medical masks, we know there are also N95 masks. In this case, the filtering power is far above that of the surgical mask which was a medical mask, but this is intended for medical personnel who are actually dealing directly with patients with Covid-19. The protection can be up to 95%. If the surgical mask earlier, between 30-95%.
So that the use of masks can provide maximum protection, it is better for the public to know things related to the use of masks during the pandemic.

Use a medical mask when in public. Change the mask every 4 hours. Avoid using metal masks, because the Corona virus can live longer in metal.
The use of a double mask is not necessary if you are already wearing a medical mask. Avoid wearing smelly masks, because smelly masks contain toxic ingredients. The mask should have no odor at all.
Worrying about using a mask for a long time, I don't think it's something to worry about. Because this mask has been made in such a way, so that we can still breathe in the air from the outside. And it has been proven that we need oxygen by using masks for our normal daily activities, that's enough.
Then about whether the particles in the mask can damage our lungs, for breathing, it doesn't. Because the layers on the mask have indeed been made in such a way with non-carcinogenic ingredients, from healthy ingredients, which can indeed stick and we inhale for our respiratory tract.
Masks are a means of protecting the public from exposure to the Corona virus. Wearing a mask means protecting yourself and from others.
The discipline of wearing masks is a simple thing that people can do as a joint effort to prevent the transmission of the Corona virus.
Hopefully useful, thanks for reading.
