Wear and Care for Your Face Coverings

Wearing a Face Covering Correctly gives you Maximum Protection

According to the CDC's website:

• Wash your hands before putting on your face covering.
• Put it on over your nose and mouth. Secure it under your chin.
• Make sure it fits snugly against the sides of your face.
• Make sure you can breathe easily.
