Wearing a mask to reduce the spread of COVID-19


           Wearing of mask stands as one of the essential initiatives in mitigating the spread of COVID 19.  COVID 19 has been proved to be transmitted via the three main body opening i.e. the nose, mouth, and eyes that are all located on the front side of the head. Since the three organs are closely located on the face, the wearing of masks facilitates an easier and efficient covering of the two main spreaders which are the nose and mouth. Moreover, since COVID 19 has been proved to be transmitted through body fluids such as saliva and mucus, wearing of the mask would limit an individual from spreading the virus to others. Thus, having saliva and mucus as the main COVID 19 virus transmitter fluids that are emitted through sneezing and talking, the discussion on mouth and nose covering using the face mask would elaborate how the entire initiative would reduce the spread of COVID 19.
