With
easing corona virus lockdown restrictions in India and across the globe, the
death rate is rising each day and no vaccine yet being invented to treat this
pandemic disease.
With
more people returning back to work, there will be more people outside as
compared to earlier where people moved only for immediate households.
Government
has advised people to wear a face covering in enclosed spaces where social
distancing is not always possible. Face covering doesn’t need to be a surgical
grade mask. It could be simply something that covers your mouth and nose.
If
you are choosing a face covering, it is equally important that you are:
· Practicing social distancing.
·
Regularly
washing your hands for 20 seconds at a time.
·
Not
touching your face or adjusting mask.
· Use
your elbow to cough or sneeze, for this preferably wear clothes that cover your
elbow.
·
Always
keep a sanitizer handy.
There is still long way
to go before life returns to normal. So it is best to be on the side of caution
atleast for couple of months, once the lockdown ends.

tricks to make easy handmade mask by using household items.
