Wearable Breathing barriers (masks) to reduce droplet transmission of Covid-19

Author(s)
Abstract

In home care providers, who may provide ongoing or first aid to people with Covid-19 need a higher level of breather barrier than the common mask. First aid educators are in a unique position within the community and organized health care to provide support for the development of breathing barrier construction that could be used by healthcare workers (HCW). This review and recommendations provides rationale and teaching elements for building the highest quality mask with given resources.
