How should I wear these masks?

• Clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water before putting on a mask.  
• Cover mouth and nose with the mask. Loop the elastic straps around your ears so there are no gaps between your face and the mask. 

After use, remove the mask from behind, loops first. Wash the mask after every use.

When should I wear a cloth face mask?

• Many States are recommending wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where social distancing may be difficult (e.g., grocery stores, pharmacies). These masks are not for use in medical settings, such as hospitals or clinics. Please check with your local authorities on what is required or recommended.
