CDC recommendations regarding cloth face coverings

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention continues to study the spread and effects of Coronavirus across the United States.

According to recent students, a significant number of people with Coronavirus are asymptomatic. On top of that, people who eventually develop symptoms can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms.

In light of this new evidence, the CDC is recommending wearing a cloth face covering in public settings, in addition to other social distancing measures.

The cloth face covering could slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others.

Cloth face coverings can be made at home from common materials at a low cost.

NOTE: The cloth face coverings recommended here are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must be reserved for health care workers and other medical professionals.
