Fabric Masks

Fabric masks are meant to protect from the spread of droplets from the wearer's mouth and nose.

These are currently being recommended for everyone and not just health workers.

Surgical Mask Straps

The surgical mask straps hold the elastic that normally is held by a health worker's ears.

It helps save the irritation caused by prolonged usage.
