Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as masks, gloves, gowns, and face shields play a vital role in protecting individuals from the spread of COVID-19. It is therefore important to ensure that the PPE being used is of high quality and meets the required standards. One way to ensure this is by purchasing PPE from a Health Canada approved company with an MDEL (Medical Device Establishment License).
Wearing masks in high traffic public places has become an important measure to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Masks are designed to cover the nose and mouth, which helps to prevent the spread of respiratory droplets that can carry the virus. These droplets can be expelled when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes, and can linger in the air for a period of time. Wearing a mask can also protect the person wearing the mask from inhaling these droplets.
