The COVID-19 pandemic has lasted a year by March 2021. The recommendations for its control, which include social distancing, hand hygiene with water and soap and/or hand sanitizer, and the use of masks have remained valid from 2020 till now. Correct and consistent use of masks is a critical step that everyone can take to avoid infection and the spread of COVID-19. The use of face masks contributes to reduce the spread of COVID-19 in the community by reducing the release of respiratory droplets from infected but asymptomatic individuals; therefore, masks work best when everyone wears them.
