As coronavirus infections near the one-million mark, is it time to add face masks to public guidelines?
A member of the medical staff listens as Montefiore Medical Center nurses call for N95 masks and other ‘critical’ PPE to handle the coronavirus pandemic on April 1, 2020 in New York.
"Just having a mask helps people feel a bit psychologically reassured even though the risk is not decreased." "In a place like Hong Kong, the highest populated place in the world — and most Hong Kongers take public transportation — I advocate universal masking," Ma said. "In Kashmir, we use three guidelines, each from WHO, the British Medical Journal, and Indian Council of Medical Research, and so far, all have urged healthy people to avoid wearing masks," Dr Khan Khawar Achakzai, a top internal medicine specialist at a government hospital in the region's main Srinagar city, toldDr Achakzai, who was quarantined recently after having come in touch with a Covid-19 patient who died later, said many doctors are advising people to wear masks.
The CDC is actively considering the wide use of masks outside the health-care setting, which has been employed in other countries with some success, Dr Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert and President Donald Trump's adviser for the current crisis, was quoted by Reuters as saying.
