Introduction
With the latest virus epidemic, it is now more vital than it has ever been to ensure that we equip ourselves with protective masks. Unfortunately, as the virus continues to spread throughout the globe, more and more pharmacies were coming forward to let the public know that all their medical masks are currently sold out.
So, does that mean that the vast majority of us that have not yet been able to access a mask should go without?
Of course not! What it does mean, however, is that you will need to come up with creative ways to create an effective mask for antiviral protection at home. Keep in mind that these are not medically approved masks and are simply masks we can try and create on our own. Better something, then nothing.
In times like this, protecting our heath has to be at the center of our concern. Though many of us, have already been placed in some form of quarantine scenario, the reality is there will still be instances that you may be forced to go out into the public. This could be a simple trip to the grocery store, hospital or even an unfortunate scenario such as a fire alarm that requires you to exit the safe space you have created.
In these cases, the need for a protective mask multiplies. Luckily, there are a bunch of simple techniques that can be utilized to create protective masks using everyday home supplies that should be easy to attain. I have included the best methods that I have found below, and have also done my best to pass on whatever knowledge I have learned to employ for myself, to hopeful help you keep yourself, children and other family members safe. Lets jump right in, shall we?
How to Protect Yourself from Infectious Diseases & Live a Healthy Lifestyle
The current virus that we are battling across the world first appeared in the Hubei Province of China. To date, there have currently been 213,617 cases identified (this number is currently multiplying by the hour), and a whopping 8,791 deaths.
The silver lining in all this is that so far there have also been 84,314 people that have successfully recovered and we are hoping that that number will continue to grow in the coming months.
This can only happen, however, if we all do our part by ensuring we take the steps advised to practice good hygiene and to use the necessary protective gears.
Should You Wear a Mask and What is The Best Masks to Wear When Available?
The best answer I could provide to that would be that you should wear a mask whenever needed. For those who do not already have the virus it is solely a matter of preference. It is important to note that the act of wearing a mask will not guarantee that you wont contract a virus, but you will be protected from placing your hand in your mouth or nose.
It has been recommended, however, that all who suspect that they may have already come in contact with the virus to wear a protective mask in the event that it is unavoidable for you to come in contact with another person. This is especially true when around children, people with underlying health conditions or the elderly as the virus affects these groups significantly more.
Some folks go as far as recommending that a mask be worn regardless of if you suspect you have the virus or not as it is possible for you to have been affected but be unaware as the symptoms can take a while to show up. It can also be hard to differentiate if what you have s the common flu or something more serious.
Therefore, if you reside in a place where there has already been a particular virus instance, or even folks around you've got the flu, then you might choose to put on a mask for the reassurance. (Additionally, obtain a flu shot when you've not yet.)
Even though it is perhaps not been rigorously recognized this publication virus spreads are airborne and will disperse through tiny droplets expelled whenever somebody coughs or sneezes. All these droplets may also linger on surfaces and hitch a ride into the lymph nodes when someone rolls them after which brings their hands into their mouth or nose.
It has been recommended by the CDC that people working in the health departments and others who are expected to socialize with infected patients to utilize N95 masks. All these are a sort of respirator mask which fits snugly into the facial skin and also made to filter small particles out of the atmosphere. When a breathing apparatus includes an"N95" designation, then so it can filter 95% of contaminants as small as 0.3 microns from the atmosphere. The viruses at the virus family are quite large (at least virus standards), and an average of they're just a little over 0.1 microns. Therefore technically, despite an N95 mask, several virus contaminations may get through.
Additionally, it is essential to be aware that N95 masks do not function well for people or children who have hair on your face, and those who have lung problems may find it more difficult to breathe if wearing these masks. N95 masks can be known as a medical apparatus and also governed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It is possible to see a set of sterile masks.
