They are mostly used by individuals who work in hazardous conditions. In recent times, they are employed by health professionals in the virus isolation centers, wards, and places where the virus is quite prevalent.
Cloth Masks
Cloth masks are made out of breathable cloth fabrics. They can be recycled by washing when used multiple times. They are however not very effective when used in contact with people contaminated with the virus.
