The deposition of the AgCu nanofilm on the nonwoven component of reusable cloth masks might help to prevent virus and bacterial infection while reducing the pollution burden related to the disposable masks.
Current infection control measures, including social distancing, wearing cloth masks, frequent cleaning and disinfecting of surfaces, frequent hand washing, and daily screening for COVID-19 symptoms are very important measures to reduce infections and severe health outcomes.
Many people use cloth masks that can be washed several times, but have a weakness that the face area is not tightly closed, resulting in leaks both in the nose area near the eyes and on the chin.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend the general public to use cloth masks as a protection for individuals and reduce the transmission of the disease.
The method of implementing this activity is in the form of social service by distributing cloth masks for free and providing information about the use of cloth masks with the target of changing the behavior of traders by always wearing masks when selling.
A service was carried out by providing 3M programs to prevent COVID-19, distributing cloth masks according to standards, distributing media posters, and providing hand wash facilities in the merchant area.
The fit of simple cloth masks on the face, as well as the resulting perimeter leakage and face mask efficacy, are expected to be highly dependent on the type of mask and facial topology.
Model simulations in the United States using COVID-19 relevant data have shown that even simple cloth masks can impede the spread of this virus and thus prevent community transmission.
Building on these results, we explore the parameter space for woven cotton fabrics to show that three-layered cloth masks can be constructed with comparable filtration performance to surgical masks under ideal conditions.
Fashion Design Major of Home Economics Department of Engineering Faculty of UNNES is appointed by the university to design and produce cloth masks to be distributed to lecturers and educational staff.
Therefore, the organization group ‘Aisyiyah in collaboration with Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta, empowers women tailors in neighborhood to produce cloth masks.
The deposition of the AgCu nanofilm on the nonwoven component of reusable cloth masks might help to prevent virus and bacterial infection while reducing the pollution burden related to the disposable masks.[1]6% were reusable cloth masks.[2]Both reusable cloth masks and disposable paper masks were studied.[3]Our study tested 15 reusable cloth masks (which included face masks, neck gaiters, and bandanas), two medical masks, and two N95 filtering facepiece respirators as source control devices for aerosols <7 m produced during simulated coughing and exhalation.[4]It was found that a majority of people cared about the environmental effects of the masks and wanted reusable cloth masks.[5]
Current infection control measures, including social distancing, wearing cloth masks, frequent cleaning and disinfecting of surfaces, frequent hand washing, and daily screening for COVID-19 symptoms are very important measures to reduce infections and severe health outcomes.[1]The result of this activity is to produce face shields as a solution to the problems of some sick people who feel stuffy when wearing cloth masks.[2]This is in line with the government's appeal to implement health protocols for the prevention of COVID-19, one of which is through wearing cloth masks for the general public.[3]
