Different the fabric face masks How do we choose the fabric mask to prevent with the Coronaviruses (CoVs) Infections?
Main Article Content
Abstract
At present the Coronaviruses (CoVs) spreads a widely countries, and internationally, evidence suggests to all citizens that can take steps to reduce a risk of infection, which an CoVs outbreak is a single infective's person will transmit the virus to others by touching secretions, sneezing and coughing. While everyone needs to be knowledgeable about their own health and prevent it from the CoVs infected spreading. The CoVs can be transmitted to other people due to the situation, in which there is a large and a limited amount of personal safety equipment. Therefore, in order to help support the efficient equipment set for medical teams.
That is, the public who should be aware to use the PPE as to be necessary and most appropriate. This article, therefore presents the necessary equipment for the production of effective fabric masks as well as able to prevent CoVs infection, and to providing an overview of the universal precaution as spread control of national and local health.
