Will face masks protect from getting infected?

There are still few studies to answer the question of whether or not to wear a face cover mask as a precaution from the virus. It depends on the standard of fabric that's accustomed to create it.

Why wearing a face mask is important?

Protecting the mouth and nose could be especially helpful in protecting others from infection, if you are sick, with or without symptoms of Covid-19. 

Even a simple, homemade mask retains most of the barely noticeable droplets of saliva, which you inevitably expel when you cough or talk. 

And the tricky thing about coronavirus is that you are often contagious before you feel symptoms. 

Wearing a face mask, along with other precautions like keeping your distance and washing your hands regularly could help a lot slow the spread of the virus. 

How to wear a face mask correctly?

We always hear that you can be infected by wearing a face mask incorrectly.

However, it is best to make sure that you only touch the face masks by the straps. Because droplets of saliva with viral particles can stick to the mask and you don't want to have them on your hand or rub them on your face.
