Homemade Masks Can Harm Wearers, Contributing to the Spread of Infection

The ‘Norq’ Infectious Disease Medical Center reports that medical masks, like any medical use item, must comply with production standards, particularly in ensuring sterility.

Therefore, the medical hospital staff urges and advises using only factory-produced masks that meet health standards. In contrast, homemade masks made in sewing workshops can harm wearers and have the opposite effect, contributing to the spread of infection.
