Masks
Masks are materials designed to cover your nose and mouth to reduce the spread of respiratory droplets, which can carry viruses or bacteria. When someone talks, coughs, or sneezes, these droplets can transmit infections. Masks act as a barrier, filtering out many of these particles and helping to protect both the wearer and others nearby. Different masks vary in effectiveness depending on their material and fit, but generally, they are a simple and effective measure to promote health and prevent the spread of illnesses in communal settings.
