As the pandemic continues, more research is being done on what is effective at preventing the virus. Especially with other mutative strands being found. More guidance and information are being given on masks and how you should wear them in order to protect yourself and others more efficiently. It has been said that double masking certain types of masks will be more effective with protection along with wearing masks with more layering built into them.

While wearing your regular surgical masks and whatnot are still effective, they’re not as effective as double masking due to the looser fit of the mask which makes you more vulnerable to the particles of the virus. With updates about the new variants, it’s best to consider your options and what’s better in order to stay safe and protect everyone. But regardless, wearing any type of mask is better than wearing no mask at all! For more information, you’re free to visit the CDC’s website at https://www.cdc.gov/

Stay safe everyone!
