Please Note: Not Medical Grade Face Masks

Per the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommendation regarding health care professionals (HCPs) use of homemade masks:

HCP use of homemade masks: In settings where facemasks are not available, HCP might use homemade masks (e.g., bandana, scarf) for care of patients with COVID-19 as a last resort. However, homemade masks are not considered PPE, since their capability to protect HCP is unknown. Caution should be exercised when considering this option. Homemade masks should ideally be used in combination with a face shield that covers the entire front (that extends to the chin or below) and sides of the face.

Use of Cloth Face Coverings to Help Slow the Spread of COVID-19

CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.

Should cloth face coverings be washed or otherwise cleaned regularly? How regularly?

• Yes. They should be routinely washed depending on the frequency of use.
  

• A washing machine should suffice in properly washing a face covering.
  

• Individuals should be careful not to touch their eyes, nose, and mouth when removing their face covering and wash hands immediately after removing.
