Covid-19: Right Use of Face Shields

These days it’s common to see people with only face Shields in public places, some even wear only face shields to the hospital. This practice Is wrong and it contributes to the rise in Covid 19 cases that we’re seeing, considering all the spaces around the face Shield.

I see people at the hospital everyday with only face Shields and I always advise them to get a face mask and wear in addition, fortunately some of them usually have their face masks in their bags or pockets so they just wear it in addition

We have to keep educating people on it, as well as on the preventive protocols so together we can be successful in our fight against Covid 19.

Aside the negative impacts on health and economy, Covid 19 is also impacting negatively on the lives of young people. This group of people are very active, adventurous and usually like their freedom. It’s therefore not surprising that restriction on movements in this era tends to affect them greatly due to the boredom they experience

Young people must therefore be supported psychologically and physically to cope with the impacts of Covid 19 on their lives.
