“Cloth face coverings may prevent the person wearing the mask from spreading respiratory droplets when talking, sneezing, or coughing.
If everyone wears a cloth face covering when out in public, such as going to the grocery store, the risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 can be reduced for the community.
Since people may spread the virus before symptoms start, or even if people never have symptoms, wearing a cloth face covering may protect others around you.
Face coverings worn by others may protect you from getting the virus from people carrying the virus“
