It is compulsory to wear Face Masks within Public areas to protect you from Coronavirus, so choosing the right one is important.In order to protect yourself and others, you need to understand the different types of masks there are. All masks should fit against the face and cover both the nose and mouth in order to be most effective.
Material Masks
The Fabric or cloth masks fits against the face by using ear loops around the head. The multiple layers of the fabric build up a barrier between your nose and your mouth. This contains any respiratory droplets that you may breathe out. The thicker the layers of the mask, the greater the barrier of protection is.
The Reusable R-Mask is a 3 layered mask which provides 99.5% protection.

IIR-MASK
The RotoMedical Type IIR Mask is a fluid-resistant, single use surgical mask recommended for use in medical and social environments.
This mask is intended to protect a patient from infective agents from a surgical team. In addition, in certain circumstances the type IIR- Mask can protect the wearer against splashes of potentially contaminated liquids such as patient's blood.
Face Shield
Face shields or face visors are made out of clear plastic formed around your face by a headband, this covers your whole face to below your chin. Because Covid-19, face visors were generally used by healthcare workers for procedures that were prone to body fluid splatters.
Face Shields now are worn by health professionals and the beauty industry. The Face Shields provides an extra layer of protection when wearing a face mask underneath. The Faceshield and Face mask does not give the same protection, as a shield doesn't provide a barrier to respiratory droplets.
