The Department of Health has embarked on massive screening of residents in their own areas during the corona virus outbreak in order to curb the spread of the virus.
Members of the public are urged to wash their hands regularly with clean water and soap for 20 seconds to prevent corona virus infections.
The main benefit of everyone wearing a face-mask is to reduce the amount of Coronavirus (or Influenza virus) being coughed up by those with the infection thereby reducing its spread through droplets.
