The whole world is now in crisis due to coronavirus. The economic, social and health damage is increasing as no recognized vaccine or antidote has been discovered so far. Because there is no antidote, virologists are always advising people to follow social distance and hygiene rules.
Since last February, various countries have implemented lockdowns to ensure social distance. At the same time, the governments of almost all countries have imposed strict rules on compliance with health regulations. And the use of mask is one of the most important issues in this hygiene. Most viruses spread through the air, researchers say. Similar features have been observed in the case of coronavirus. Therefore, the use of masks can reduce the risk of viral infections from sneezing and coughing, the researchers think.
A 2016 study in New South Wales found that people touched their mouths with their hands an average of 23 times per hour. This tendency to touch the face repeatedly increases the risk of coronavirus infection. The virus can enter the body of a healthy person through sneezing and coughing if it comes in contact with an already infected person. And so researchers are not looking at the option of using a mask to protect yourself and others as well as regular hand cleaning.However, many virologists have questioned the effectiveness of masks in preventing the transmission of all types of airborne viruses. Although there is a rich history of benefits from using this mask to prevent hand-to-mouth infections.
