Taking about this corona pandemic, the world has faced a shortage of surgical masks and N95 respiratory. People turned up to homemade face masks to protect themselves from the disease to some extent. However, these face masks aren’t ideal and only provide a little amount of protection. Even then they seem to be the best possible solution for people who can not afford the other masks. It is a deadly airborne illness that can not be completely prevented by simple masks. As the world is facing a shortage of surgical masks and N95 respirator, it is recommended that the general public use face masks and keeps the other ones in stock for Healthcare workers or people who have direct contact with Coronavirus patients. Face masks have the benefit that you do not need to decompose them after every use, they can be washed and reused. You can have an unlimited supply of face masks at home and can make them from material at home. It is better to use face masks than nothing if you going out or to a place where social distancing is hard. 

However, it still generates a sense of false security in people. Wearing face masks does not mean you are completely safe. Social distancing and washing hands frequently are the best option to protect yourself from Coronavirus.
