MASK ( MOUTH)

 

Any scientific theory is evidence based. So it is accepted, whether or not it proves right in every situation or circumstances. In the beginning of the outburst of the Covid pandemic all over the world, every person was told to wear face masks to fight the virus. The mandate holds good even today. 

Evidence suggests that wearing face masks can help fight against COVID-19, along with social distancing and proper handwashing. 

Mask skeptics then began their cry over the side effects of wearing face mask, like a petulant child.

In many occasions, use of masks have been related to parachutes. Its quite an interesting comparison by the mask advocates, which really makes sense!

Here's how👉Parachutes are used to prevent deaths while jumping off a plane. There are no qualitative evidences that has proved this right! Yet it will be a foolish decision to not deploy it, if under such a situation.

....in dilemma? Whether parachutes may function well or not, it is used extensively, even today!!

Training and learning the right way to use, be it parachute or face mask, it would seriously outweigh the negatives.

Scientists have already acknowledged the side effects of face masks:

• creating a false sense of security of the person wearing it; there is a reduction in compliance with other important measures like social distancing and handwashing.( read here)
• inappropriate use of face mask like touching the mask frequently while wearing it, incorrect ways of disposing them etc..

Skepticism has reached heights where the negative effects are weighed more than the positives.

Like difficulty in breathing, skin irritations, rashes, exhaled air going into the eyes and so forth.

THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS WITHOUT SOLUTIONS 💯

It should be understood that we should sometimes act without definitive evidences. 

Those who have to wear masks for long hours may start to experience challenges like the above mentioned side effects.
