What does WOW mean in DISEASES

Wearing a face mask helps to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus by blocking droplets that may come out when someone coughs or sneezes. It also serves as a reminder not to touch your face, which can help reduce the risk of being infected from touching contaminated surfaces.

To observe social distancing guidelines during the pandemic it is recommended that people stay at least six feet away from each other in public places. It is also important for people to avoid gathering in large crowds. Q3: What type of mask should I wear? A3: The CDC recommends wearing a cloth face covering (such as homemade masks) when you are around others who are not part of your household and cannot maintain a six-foot physical distance from them. Cloth face coverings should fit snugly against your face and be secured with ties or ear loops.

It is essential to wash your hands frequently throughout the day with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or using hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol content. You should always wash your hands before touching any food items, after going to the bathroom or contact with any objects outside your home. Q5: What else can I do besides wearing masks and maintaining social distance? A5: Besides wearing masks and maintaining social distance there are many other things you can do such as avoiding close contact with anyone who appears ill or has symptoms associated with COVID-19, staying home if you start feeling unwell yourself, avoiding large gatherings as much as possible, and frequently cleaning shared surfaces like countertops or door handles with disinfectant wipes.
