Doctors told about the rules for wearing masks outside in frost

“A mask is an element not warming up in frost.

Therefore, if you are walking along a deserted street, take off your mask, ”RIA Novosti quotes Belova.

According to her, it is worth wearing a mask where there is a large crowd of people, for example, at a bus stop.

“If a person breathes, coughs, sneezes into the mask, drops are formed.

At low temperatures, they begin to cool down, and with them the person, ”said Belova, answering the question whether wearing a mask on the street can provoke a cold.

Infectious disease doctor Nikolai Malyshev also noted that wearing a mask is not required on the street, stressing that it is also not suitable for heating the respiratory tract.

Earlier, Rospotrebnadzor reported that the mask regime in Russia will remain until the coronavirus becomes seasonal.
