Face masks help to protect users by reducing the spread of droplets from the nose and mouth. 

• Disposable masks are suitable for clinical environments where multiple changes are often required. 
• Washable and reusable face masks are suitable for all other environments including daily activities. 

For maximum protection, masks should cover the nose and mouth and fit snugly to the face. While no mask provides 100% protection against airborne particles or vapor, wearing a mask is recommended by many healthcare professionals and governments for public spaces such as grocery stores and public transit.
