mask, clean hands with
anti- bacterial soap and
water. Ensuring that
washing lasts for at least
20 seconds.

avoid touching the front.
Cover mouth and nose
with mask and make
sure there are no gaps
between your face and
the mask. Do not fit
masks for others.

mask whilst using it. If
you do, wash hands
with soap and water.

a new one as soon as it
becomes damp. Dispose
of used masks in a lidded,
