Need to do a good job of personal protection

Mask and protective clothing are the most common protective equipment

How to properly wear masks and put on and take off protective clothing

Experts from the Institute of Infectious Disease Control of Shanghai CDC

Make the following guidance

When wearing a mask, you should pay attention to choosing the right size mask to ensure that it completely wraps around your mouth, nose and chin. For N95 and KN95 masks, it is also necessary to confirm the tightness through inhalation and exhalation tests when wearing them. During the work process, the mask should be kept to fit the face and not slip off or expose the nose. When taking off the mask, avoid touching the front of the mask with your hands and do hand hygiene in time.

The "Great White" is what we call secondary protection. It is usually used in close contact with the suspected risk object, or with the suspected risk object in the room for a longer period of time.

Mainly includes: disposable hats, N95/KN95 masks or medical protective masks, goggles or protective face screen, medical protective clothing, gloves, shoe covers or work shoes and other six pieces of protective equipment.

These protective supplies have some key points

We must pay attention to

1. Mask is the most important protective equipment, so take off last; gloves are the dirtiest, so take them off first; protective clothing and shoe covers are worn together, so we take them off together. In contrast, the wearing order is the exact opposite of the taking off order.

2. There are some points to note in wearing, such as hat to completely wrap the hair; gloves should wrap the protective clothing cuffs, shoe covers to wrap the protective clothing pants; protective face screen should completely cover the chin.

3. Protective equipment should not be used continuously for more than 4 hours. If there is contamination or damage during use, it should be replaced immediately.

4. After finishing wearing, volunteers should work in groups of at least 2 people, not alone, in order to remind each other in time.

5. When taking off, the most dirty gloves should be taken off first, then the face screen (goggles), protective clothing and shoe covers should be taken off at the same time, and the mask hat should be taken off at the second off and replaced with a new mask. Of course, in order to ensure that hands have been clean in the process of unloading, each off a piece of protective equipment should be a hand hygiene.

6. There are also some points to note when taking off and removing. Slowly and gently; the outer surface should be wrapped in the inner surface, such as when taking off protective clothing to slowly roll down and take off the shoe covers together. In addition, if more than one person takes off at the same time, everyone's movements should be synchronized and separated by a distance of more than 2 meters.
