Why You Should Start Making Your Own Facemasks
April 5, 2020
The article I read is about face masks and how they are important right now and how they help stop spreading the coronavirus pandemic (also the symptoms). In the article it talks about how face masks were important at the start of the coronavirus outbreak and how the hospitals were running low on them. But then health officials said how face masks are important and how they stop the droplets from getting to one person to another person.
Also, many people have very dangerous infections and they have to where a face mask to not spread the infection. In this state many people are posting themselves with face masks and many people were inspired by this and turned their houses in sowing shops and made homemade masks with their own sowing machines. Even though homemade face masks are not as effective as health and medical face masks they don't let out 95% of the droplets out when coughing. Also, since the medical face masks are impossible to find you can look online and find how to make one. Even though you are stuck at home you can make your own masks and wearing one means that we are all in this together and helping to not spread the virus and to keep the world safe from this pandemic.
