📢#COVID19Nigeria UPDATE

NCDC has issued an advisory guiding Nigerians on the use of face masks

Recognising the need for guidance on #COVID19 prevention, we remain committed to keeping citizens informed on verified ways to stay safe

Read via
covid19.ncdc.gov.ng/resource/guide…
NCDC recommends that masks are worn:

1. As an optional added layer of physical distancing while in crowded settings eg. markets

2. By the elderly with preexisting medical conditions eg. diabetes

3. In combination with social distancing, hand washing & cleaning surfaces
It is critical to ensure proper handling of masks. Improper disposal & frequent touching can increase risk of infection with the #COVID19 virus.

Please note, medical masks are best reserved for patients & healthcare workers who need them most.
