Recently, the Xi’an City Epidemic Prevention and Control Command issued warm tips to remind the general public to wear masks scientifically and in a standard way, and to be the first responsible person for their own health.
What are the situations or scenarios where the wearing of masks should be regulated at this stage? The City Epidemic Prevention and Control Command advises that all people should wear masks correctly and regularly when they are in a period of positive antigen or nucleic acid tests for the new coronavirus; when they have developed symptoms of suspected new coronavirus infection such as fever, sore throat, cough, runny nose, muscle aches and weakness; when there is a gathering of new coronavirus in the community, unit or school where they live, work or study; or when foreigners enter places where vulnerable people are concentrated such as elderly institutions and social welfare institutions. The mask should be worn properly and regularly when entering places where vulnerable people are concentrated, such as elderly and social welfare institutions.
As the summer travel season is now at its peak, the City Epidemic Prevention and Control Command advises the general public to wear masks when travelling on public transport such as planes, trains, coaches, boats, subways and buses; when entering environmentally confined and crowded places such as supermarkets, theatres and passenger transport stations; when elderly people, people with chronic underlying diseases and pregnant women go to indoor public places; when attending places where people come from a wide range of sources, are mobile and do not have nucleic acid It is recommended that masks be worn when attending large conferences or events where there is no requirement for nucleic acid testing or antigen testing, health monitoring, etc.; when visiting medical institutions, accompanying patients, escorts or visitors; and during the work of public service staff such as medical and nursing staff, catering staff, cleaning staff and security guards in key institutions such as elderly institutions, social welfare institutions and childcare institutions, schools and out-of-school training institutions.
It is important to note that there are different precautions for people to wear masks in different situations and scenarios. For example, N95 or KN95 or above masks (without breathing valve) are recommended for those infected with the new coronavirus and those suspected of being infected; for others, single-use medical masks or medical surgical masks are recommended, with timely replacement of masks; and for those with cardiopulmonary impairment, masks should be worn under medical supervision. In addition, in hot summer weather, avoid wearing masks for long periods of time and take a break in an open and cool place if you experience chest tightness and shortness of breath.
