Paragraph on The Importance of Wearing Mask
COVID-19 is an acute respiratory disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 spreads through close contact with an infected person. This virus spreads when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. The virus comes out through the nose and mouth in droplets and if a healthy person inhales the droplets, he or she gets affected too.
So, it is very important to wear masks when we are outside or among unknown people. Masks may prevent the virus from spreading easily in the air from an infected person and also it prevents a healthy person from inhaling those contaminated droplets directly.
Therefore, if a person feels sick, he must wear a mask to protect others. At the same time, a healthy person should wear it too. To wear a mask properly, we need to put the mask over our nose and mouth and then secure it under our chin and behind our ears or head. We should make sure that we can breathe easily. We should not touch or adjust our mask frequently without cleaning our hands, Also, we should avoid using a mask twice.
However, wearing a mask may not ensure complete safety, yet it slows a down the spread of the virus significantly. Hence, people who do not wear masks, are at the risk of being easily infected by COVID-19.
The World Health Organization (WHO) suggests that masks made of fabrics are more effective than surgical masks. Also, fabric masks are washable, reusable, and more comfortable than other masks. Thus, wearing a mask can be one of the most effective ways of preventing COVID-19.
