Staying safe from infection

[harm_less]

Yes, alot of common sense advice here.
Masks dont do much to prevent infection, but do help stop you spreading it if you are sick, unless you are wearing a full face respirator(basically a gas mask) you are not 100% protected from virus particles getting in through your eyes.

In a previous post Dr John suggested playing a game with your partner/parent/child where you tell each other when touching their own face. This will impress on you how often we actually touch our face (nose, mouth, eyes) with our hands which is a common infection risk.
One advantage of wearing even a basic mask is to restrict touching of your face.
