Description

If you want to learn how to easily make homemade medical masks on your own, then keep reading... According to certain studies, the efficacy of a face mask in preventing the spread of diseases is inconclusive. This is due to the fact that the studies were conducted on healthcare professionals in their workplace. The outcome of the studies reveals that when health workers use face masks while attending to sick patients, they limit the risk of spreading diseases. On the other hand, the same studies on the efficacy of face masks conducted on members of the public show that people who can't afford to be in confined spaces and hospital waiting rooms with others should wear a face mask to avoid the person-to-person spread of germs. According to Dr. Sexton, Emory University School of Medicine's assistant professor, face masks are not foolproof, but they help to curb the spread of infectious particles when a person is coughing. People who are not sick are advised not to rely solely on the use of face masks as a mean of preventing respiratory infections. This is according to Popescu, who noted that surgical masks only offer limited protection against contracting diseases. Furthermore, face masks can be used to prevent the spread of germs in closed quarters, on a train, and a packed waiting room, but they are never useful as a means of stopping the outbreak of the new coronavirus. In the chapters of this book you will find useful tips on how to make your own medical mask: What is a medical mask and why you need it The 3 main types of medical masks How to make a medical mask and how to wear it correctly Medical masks disadvantages Airborne diseases and protective measures against microorganisms How close is close? Understanding close contact & how to deal with it Natural ways to maintain a healthy immune system And Much More! Health experts and CDC advise that proper and effective preventive measures are straightforward and only involve necessary everyday actions. These daily actions that can help to stop the spread of respiratory infections include washing of hands often, not touching feces, keeping your distance from sick people, and staying inside whenever you're sick. Nowadays, internet stores and retailers around the world are gradually running out of face masks. That's why Homemade Medical Masks is the perfect guide you are looking for! Where most books about this delicate subject only provide approximative solutions, this book goes further, not only focusing on the overall context and giving a general overview but also taking the time to give all the needed details on how you can create by yourself an efficient mask.
