Corona 's protective cover ( everything you want to know )

Top Tips for Corona 

The number of people infected with corona is steadily increasing. In such a situation, it is important to not only wear masks in the right way, but also to take all the necessary safety measures. Not only this, even if the corona has been done, do not be afraid of it, because it is very easy to defeat it with caution. Learn how to prevent and treat corona:

Keep these basic things in mind to avoid corona

1. Mask: Two to one good

Masks are the most necessary to avoid corona. Wear a double mask to see the rapid spread of the second wave of corona. Do know these things about the mask:

That's why wearing a mask is important

The corona virus is airborne, that is, it spreads through the air. When infected with a corona, a person coughs or sneezes or speaks loudly, small droplets of water come out of their mouth and nose, called doplets. The new variant of the corona virus can float in the air up to 6 feet through the particles present in the air. In a closed room or closed space, the virus remains present in the air for some time after the corona patient is gone. In such a situation, while breathing, these drops go into the body of a person who is not wearing a mask and infects him / her. These drops do not go into the body through breath, so it is necessary to wear a mask to prevent them.

These masks will block Corona 

Triple layer (3 layer) mask should be worn to prevent corona. The triple layer is a way of identifying that there are 2 layers of the mask back and forth which are easily visible. There is one more layer between these two layers. Try pulling both front and back layers slightly opposite to each other. The third layer between them will be easily felt. If there is no third layer between these two layers, do not buy that mask. These triple-layer masks are effective in preventing the corona virus.

Surgical mask: Triple layer surgical mask is also great. It should be thrown away once used. It protects against corona virus from a distance of 6 feet. Prevents large contamination particles in the air, but does not prevent small dust particles.

Cloth Mask: This is also a very effective mask, especially cotton mask. There is also no complaint of suffocation and it also protects from almost all types of dust particles. It is also easy to wash and use again and again. Yes, make sure that the cloth mask is at least 3 layers. If you keep a cloth mask in the number of 4-5, then after wearing and cleaning the mask first, its next turn will come only after 5 days.

N-95 mask without valve: N-95 mask is the best, but without valve. Actually, any mask with a valve can be risqué. If a person is corona positive, he draws clean air, but the air he leaves can reach others. However, the N-95 mask is mostly used by doctors and medical staff. At the same time, corona positive patients are also asked to apply this mask in the hospital.

The right way to wear a mask 

Wearing only a good mask is not enough, but it is necessary to wear it in the right way. Whether the mask is worn well or not, know it this way:

- The mask is always of good company and has a nose pin. The nose pin is when applying the mask, the nose pin almost seals the area around the nose.

- Wear a mask that covers the nose, mouth, chin completely.

- After applying the mask, exhale through the mouth or nose vigorously. Meanwhile, place your hands on the edges of the mask. If you feel the air coming out while exhaling, then understand that the mask is not installed properly or the mask is not of good quality. In this case, set the mask well or buy a mask of good company.

- If the mask is properly fitted, warm air will be felt inside the mask while exhaling.

- If the mask has such rubber (elastic) that fits on both ears, then such mask cannot be kept for long time. This causes pain in the ears as well. Therefore, it is better to wear a mask that has elastic loop, which goes through the back of the head. In this, the elastic fits not on the ears but on the back of the head. Such masks can be worn for a long time.

Two masks are therefore necessary

- Two masks are necessary so that if there is a gap in the edges of one mask, then the other mask can complete it so that the corona virus can be more protected.

- If you are going to a crowded place like market, bank etc. or hospital or there is a corona patient in the house, then wear two masks.

Wear two masks like this

Never wear two masks like this. Such as surgical-surgical or cotton-cotton.

- Wear a cloth mask first and wear a surgical mask over it. The surgical mask above so that it can be thrown after use. At the same time, surgical mask and cloth mask can also be worn first.

- Before throwing the surgical mask, clean it with a sanitizer and then cut it with scissors. After this, wrap it in some paper and throw it in the dustbin.

- After removing the cotton mask, hang it near the door of the house. Also, if you get a chance, wash it with soap and water (better if the water is hot) and dry it in the sun. Only then use it again.
