Face Masks for Covid-19 Protection

How to eat and drink safely when wearing a face mask?

Wearing a face mask for long periods of time takes some getting used to. It is important to make sure the mask doesn’t become contaminated during use, especially while eating food or having a drink. Never pull your face mask down to your chin or neck to eat or drink as this can contaminate your mask.

Here’s what you can do when you are ready to eat or drink during a break:

• Clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
• Remove the face mask by holding the elastic loops or untying the ties.
• Carefully place the mask on a clean surface such as a paper towel or paper bag to avoid contamination of other surfaces.
• Once you are done eating or drinking, clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
• Put on your face mask carefully. Ensure the clean side of the mask is towards your face and take care that the mask does not touch your eyes or face.
