Precautions for face mask use
(1) Respiratory protective equipment includes mouth muzzle and mask. Wash hands before wearing and after removing.
(2) Pay attention to the front and back and up and down when wearing a mask. The mask should cover the nose and mouth, and adjust the nose clip to fit the face.
(3) Avoid touching the inside and outside of the mouthpiece with your hands during wearing. Take off the mask by taking off the cord at both ends.
(4) Wearing multiple masks cannot effectively increase the protective effect, but instead increases the respiratory resistance and may damage the adhesion.
(5) There is no evidence to prove the effectiveness of various cleaning and disinfection methods on masks.
(6) Both disposable medical masks and medical surgical masks are used for a limited time, and the cumulative use does not exceed 8 hours. Occupational exposure personnel do not use masks for more than 4 hours and cannot be reused.
