😷 Proper Mask Wearing: Don’t Let Your Protection Go to Waste!

Wearing a mask significantly reduces the spread of flu viruses, but wearing it incorrectly makes it ineffective! Here are some common mistakes to avoid:

❌ Mask under your chin? NO! 👉 Droplets and viruses can still enter through your nose and mouth—it's like not wearing one at all!❌ Nose exposed? NO! 👉 Your nasal passages are a primary entry point for viruses—your mask must fully cover them!❌ Loose-fitting mask? NO! 👉 Gaps allow viruses to enter, reducing the mask’s effectiveness!

✅ How to Wear a Mask Correctly:✔ Ensure full coverage of your nose and mouth, with the bottom edge secured under your chin.✔ Press the nose clip to fit snugly against your nose, minimizing air leakage.✔ Avoid touching the mask’s outer surface—remove it by handling the ear loops only.

📢 A mask is a simple yet powerful protective tool—wear it properly to truly protect yourself and others! 😷💪
