Mouth caps
Today at work (media company) had consultation (via the video stream). Because the situation will probably remain the same as it is now, we, as a company, have to prepare for it. Thus, it was decided that there #mondkapjes for colleagues who want to make use of it. Think mainly of reporters of the various TV programs that go on location and want to use such a mask. That raised some questions. How are we going to do the division? How many should be given with a reporter? Can you use such a mouth mask several times? And when you want to throw them away, where do you do it? It's up to me to find out all that. IS REUSE OF THE MASKS SAFE? On the website The mouthcaps specialist (yes, it really exists) is told that you should definitely discard a mask after eight hours of use. With medicinal, this should be done after each treatment. But since this is not the case, it seems possible to use the same mask several times, misses used well.
WHERE TO THROW AWAY? That's a whole puzzle because found on the internet. Eventually the GAD (Regional Waste Service) sent an email with this question. They replied that it could be disposed of in the residual waste. However, they must be disposed of in a sealed trash bin like the WHO told .
SCHEINSURITY The use of a mouth mask can help false certainty. When incorrectly applying the mask, you can, on the contrary, apply viruses to your body. It RIVM recommends that mouthcaps should only be used by medical personnel. If you still want to use the mask, the correct application of the mask is very important.
These are the guidelines for applying masks as stated by World Health Organization:
Do not touch the outside of the cap, because there the bacteria accumulate there.
