Australians Have Been Advised Not To Wear Face Masks If They Aren't Infected By Covid-19

REUTERS/Nicholas Pfosi Australia's deputy chief medical officer Paul Kelly told Australians that they shouldn't wear face masks. That's partially due to the short supply of face masks in the health care system. Kelly pointed out that it's also because face masks aren't very effective in protecting an individual from infection. He said the country has made gains in face mask supplies and in its effort to make its own face masks.
