How to use the mask
Cover your mouth and nose carefully with a mask and fasten it to minimize the gap between the face and the mask; when using, avoid touching the mask - after touching the used mask, for example to remove or clean the mask, use soap and Wash your hands with water or alcohol hand sanitizer;
¡¡¡¡After the mask is wet or contaminated with moisture, put on a new clean and dry mask;
¡¡¡¡Do not reuse disposable masks. Disposable masks should be discarded after each use and disposed of immediately after removal. Although there are other masks that replace standard medical masks (such as cotton masks, turbans, facial masks, and strips covering the nose and mouth), there is a lack of information about the effectiveness of such materials.
If such alternative coverings are used, they should only be used once, or if they are cotton masks, they should be thoroughly cleaned after each use (ie with household detergent at normal temperature). It should be removed immediately after nursing the patient. Wash hands immediately after removing the mask.
