What masks to wear and in what cases, Professor Todor Kantardzhiev, director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, gave his advice to the Bulgarian National Radio.
There are currently three types of masks available. Some are cloth, some people even make them at home. The second class are the so-called “surgical masks”, medical masks. And third, these are masks with a very high degree of protection: these are masks that are primarily for people who work with patients who work in laboratories with infectious coronavirus material.
First, it is clear to any well-meaning and educated person that the mask protects. Second, the scientific fact is that the mask does not protect 100%. In addition to the mask, the distance must be observed, one must not shout, not gather too many people. Always wear the mask indoors … “
By public transport
“The medical mask fully meets the requirements of anti-epidemic measures. In public transport, if everyone wears a mask but uses it correctly, the probability of infection is minimized. From the outside, and to people who show disrespect for the They do not wear masks. They do not risk their own health as much as that of others. “
“People without education and indiscipline should be punished or there should simply be public intolerance against them because they represent a risk to public health.” – Professor Kantardzhiev is categorical.
The control
“Control is a commitment of Public Transport to organize hygienic measures during transport, since in trains it is a commitment of BDZ”.
In the offices
“In the offices, the health-conscious or the employer will give money (1000-2000 BGN) for a device that segregates the air, if more than two people work in a room. This is a device called ‘cold sterilization of the air “with UV-C light *. Just a device that passes the air in the room through pipes, where UV-C light kills all microorganisms, including mold spores, bacteria and coronaviruses. Second, in offices where more than two people work, it is good to open the window briefly every 1 hour and 5 minutes to change the air. Distance is also important. “
Protective plexiglass screens
“This is a very good solution to reduce the risk of infection. Especially for places where many people are received or visitors are received (shops, etc.)”.
In schools
“Let’s tell the mothers: it is good to change them every two or three hours when wearing the masks. It is better to have the masks of a different color and know for hours which masks they are wearing. Good idea, because the surgical mask after 2 -3 hours of hydration has lost some of its protective properties.
The most important thing is not to be afraid, to take the challenge seriously and soberly, ”appealed Professor Kantardzhiev.
