Saving Your Health, One Mask at a Time
from a long article by Peter Tippet, MD, PhD.
How does the average person decide what measures to follow unless they truly understand how these things work or have a clear set of “rules” they can abide by?
Bottom Line On Masks & Gloves:
Wear a mask when you are in “exposure” zones (mainly places with other people).
Treat your home, car, and yard as safe places (no mask or gloves).
Be on high alert on what you are doing with your hands when you are in “danger zones.” This is when you must not touch your face.
Consider wearing gloves (even winter gloves or work gloves can be helpful) but only for short periods of time and only when in “touch exposure” danger zones.
Remove your gloves (and mask) when you return to your safe place.
Wash your hands every single time you take off your gloves or mask, or move from a danger zone back to a safe zone.
When you are at home and after washing up, you can relax, scratch your nose, rub your eyes and floss your teeth…without worry.
