Proper Use of Surgical Mask
- Clean your hands thoroughly before wearing a surgical mask
- When wearing a mask, the coloured side should face outward
- The metallic strip should be on top with the pleats underneath
- Position the elastic bands around both ears to keep the mask in place
- Press the metallic strip firmly against the bridge of the nose and the cheeks
- Make sure the edge of the mask fits the face closely
- Avoid touching the mask once it is secured on the face
- Remove the mask by only touching the elastic bands
- Dispose of the used mask in a lidded rubbish bin then clean hands
