In recent days, people around the world are living in panic and panic when the severe coronary pneumonia virus is raging in Wuhan City - in central China. Currently, on January 31, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the corona virus epidemic to be a global emergency medical condition. This makes the people 's spirit even more confused. Where I live and work, in Vietnam, family members rushed to buy medical masks. Many businesses have taken advantage of this worrying psychology to profit, selling medical masks and hand sanitizer for 10 to 12 times the normal price. Of course the government and authorities have stepped in to stabilize the situation, but people's psychology is still insecure. As a doctor, I believe that the panic comes from people not being fully equipped with corona virus, how it spreads, as well as medical masks that help protect against viral infections or not, how to use medical masks properly and effectively. So I wrote this booklet, with the desire to give people a true - simple - useful understanding of corona virus and how to prevent it from spreading in the community. Specifically include: 1. Basic knowledge of corona virus, as well as how it is transmitted in the community. What to do if you have signs of someone infected with corona virus? 2. What types of medical masks are used and work to prevent corona virus infection in the community? And how to use medical masks properly and effectively. 3. Some important notes to improve the body's resistance, help fight corona virus effectively. Sincerely thank you!

Before the pandemic pandemic caused by corona virus, everyone panicked and went to buy masks to prevent influenza virus. And the first question that comes to our minds may be, "What kinds of masks are there? Which ones are effective in preventing the spread of flu viruses?" I see too many people who have yet to receive this knowledge. It's basic but essential at the moment - the world is coping with the most terrible epidemic ever. Therefore, I am writing this booklet with the desire to share the following 3 core things: 1. Can face mask prevent the spread of flu virus? 2. What types of masks are popular on the market? And benefits - the value of each type in preventing influenza spread? 3. How to use a mask properly to prevent the spread of influenza. I hope that this booklet will help you to gain knowledge about a flu mask so that you can make the right choices. And know how to wear a mask to protect yourself and your loved ones. Thanks!

In recent days, people around the world are living in panic when the Covid-19 epidemic is raging in Wuhan city - central China. On January 31, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Covid-19 epidemic to be a global emergency medical condition. This makes everyone's spirits even more confused. Where I live and work, in Vietnam, people flock to buy medical masks. Many businesses have taken advantage of this panic mentality to reap illicit profits, by selling medical masks and hand sanitizers for 10 to 12 times the normal price. Of course, the government has intervened to stabilize the situation, but people's psychology is still insecure. As a doctor, I believe the panic comes from our inadequate knowledge of coronavirus, how it spreads. As well as knowledge about medical masks: "How to use medical masks properly and effectively, to protect yourself and those around you?" So I wrote this booklet, with the desire to give people a simple and useful understanding of coronavirus and how to prevent it from spreading in the community by wearing a proper face mask. Content includes: 1. Basic knowledge of coronavirus, as well as how it is transmitted in the community. What to do if you have signs of someone infected with coronavirus? 2. What types of medical masks are used and work to prevent coronavirus infection in the community? And how to use medical masks properly and effectively to protect yourself. 3.

The simple fabric face mask is a key agent in the fight against the global spread of COVID-19. However, beyond its role as a protective covering against coronavirus infection, the face mask is the bearer of powerful symbolic and political power and arouses intense emotions. Adopting an international perspective informed by social theory, The Face Mask in COVID Times: A Sociomaterial Analysis offers an intriguing and original investigation of the social, cultural and historical dimensions of face-masking as a practice in the age of COVID. Rather than Beck’s ‘risk society’, we are now living in a ‘COVID society’, the long-term effects of which have yet to be experienced or imagined. Everything has changed. The COVID crisis has generated novel forms of sociality and new ways of living and moving through space and time. In this new world, the face mask has become a significant object, positioned as one of the key ways people can protect themselves and others from infection with the coronavirus. The face mask is rich with symbolic meaning as well as practical value. In the words of theorist Jane Bennett, the face mask has acquired a new ‘thing-power’ as it is coming together with human bodies in these times of uncertainty, illness and death. The role of the face mask in COVID times has been the subject of debate and dissension, arousing strong feelings. The historical and cultural contexts in which face masks against COVID contagion are worn (or not worn) are important to consider. In some countries, such as Japan and other East Asian nations, face mask wearing has a long tradition. Full or partial facial coverings, such as veiling, is common practice in regions such as the Middle East. In many other countries, including most countries in the Global North, most people, beyond health care workers, have little or no experience of face masks. They have had to learn how to make sense of face masking as a protective practice and how to incorporate face masks into their everyday practices and routines. Face masking practices have become highly political. The USA has witnessed protests against face mask wearing that rest on ‘sovereign individualism’, a notion which is highly specific to the contemporary political climate in that country. Face masks have also been worn to make political statements: bearing anti-racist statements, for example, but also Trump campaign support. Meanwhile, celebrities and influencers have sought to advocate for face mask wearing as part of their branding, while art makers, museums, designers and novelty fashion manufacturers have identified the opportunity to profit from this sudden new market. Face masks have become a fashion item as well as a medical device: both a way of signifying the wearer’s individuality and beliefs and their ethical stance in relation to the need to protect their own and others’ health. The Face Mask in COVID Times: A Sociomaterial Analysis provides a short and accessible analysis of the sociomaterial dimensions of the face mask in the age of COVID-19. The book presents seven short chapters and an epilogue. We bring together sociomaterial theoretical perspectives with compelling examples from public health advice and campaigns, anti-mask activism as well as popular culture (news reports, blog posts, videos, online shopping sites, art works) to illustrate our theoretical points, and use Images to support our analysis.

The science behind wearing a mask to stop the spread of Coronavirus, from a top expert in the field. In America, the debate over whether or not masks should be worn to prevent the spread of COVID-19 has become enmeshed with political affiliation, views on religious and personal freedoms, and conflicting media reports on the benefits and dangers of facial coverings. But now, several months into this pandemic, what does science say? What have we learned from international case studies? Dr. Hashimoto, the chief medical officer who oversees the Workplace Health and Wellness division at Mass General Brigham, a Harvard Medical School affiliated healthcare system, presents the current research, making the case that wearing masks in public is a key part of saving lives and bringing this pandemic to a halt. Citing specific examples of situations where infected individuals wore masks versus ones who didn't and how that changed the outcome, as well as population-based studies in individual states and by country, and the undeniable effect that universal masking had on Mass Brigham Hospital's staff of 75,000, Dr. Hashimoto offers a clear and compelling argument for the benefits of masking. In addition, he explains the complementary roles of social distancing, washing hands, coronavirus testing, and face shields, and a thorough exploration of what kinds of masks are most effective at stopping the spread of viruses and how they should be fitted and worn. He addresses safety concerns and medical misconceptions about mask wearing, why the CDC didn't recommend universal mask wearing at the beginning of the pandemic, and how employers can promote mask wearing in their workplaces. Don't wear a mask just because someone told you to. Find out the real reasons for masking and understand the science for yourself.

This book on Covid-19 aka Coronavirus has all the understanding of this epidemic & safety measures to fight it off. This book also contains multiple methods to create hand sanitizers & face masks. Coronaviruses refer to a large family of viruses according to the biological classification systems. This family is responsible for many known illnesses in humans like the common cold. This coronavirus is a new strain, earlier not identified in human beings, the novel-coronavirus, which is causing the current havoc. The common symptoms of this viral infection are fever, cough, and symptoms related to a respiratory system like difficulty in breathing, shortness of breath. In its most severe form, it can also lead to SARS, kidney failure, pneumonia, and even death.

These days, we are panicking at the raging of corona virus. At first glance, China's health authorities underestimated their danger. And so far, its destructive power is the most terrible among the diseases that humans have experienced in the last 100 years. At the place where I work, people are rushing to buy medical masks. And business people take advantage of this to increase the price of masks and handwash to 10-12 times normal. As a doctor, I understand why this situation occurs. This is because most people do not yet know the corona virus and how it is transmitted. So, I took the time to write a file about corona virus (Everything about coronavirus and how to protect yourself), and a guide on how to choose and use medical masks properly (Everything about face masks and Coronavirus). And now, I feel I need to continue to teach people how to wash their hands properly. Because of this, along with wearing a mask, are the two most important things to help prevent the spread of corona virus in the community. In this booklet, I will share the following 3 main content: 1. Why should I wash my hands during the coronavirus outbreak? The benefits that handwashing brings to each of us help prevent disease spread. 2. How to wash your hands properly according to the instructions of reputable health organizations. 3. Finally, I will share the type of hand sanitizer recommended by health professionals. I hope that my knowledge and colleagues from health organizations around the globe will help people take the initiative in preventing the spread of corona virus disease. And we will repel it soon.
