It is being shared that there is a huge risk of the infection/spread of the coronavirus pandemic from the large number of used facial masks thrown on the roads/streets!
The citizens have taken to the habit of wearing facial masks all the time in order to prevent infection of the coronavirus. However, 1 facial mask can be used only up to a fixed period. After that, it has to be replaced with a new one! The Health Department has been insisting that the used facial masks have to be thrown on the dustbins.
However, it is observed that the citizens who venture out to buy essential commodities tend to throw the used masks in the public areas.
As expressed by the social enthusiasts, this will lead to infection as the stray cattle and dogs which smell these may get infected thus providing scope for the spread of infection!
So, the Health Department has insisted that the public MUST throw the used facial masks ONLY in the DUSTBINS.
