Recommendations from the Cleveland Clinic
To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the wearing of masks and other facial coverings has become mandatory in most public areas. But how effective are these cloth facial coverings? In an article from Consult QD (May 5, 2020), Raed Dweik, MD, Chair of Cleveland Clinic’s Respiratory Institute and Steven Gordon, MD, Chair of Cleveland Clinic’s Department of Infectious Disease were asked these questions. You can read the full interview here.

Should I wear a face mask out in public?
The CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public. Most noteworthy in places where it’s hard to maintain at least 6 feet of distance between yourself and another person. Cloth face masks are recommended because we now know individuals with COVID-19 could have mild or no symptoms. Wearing a cloth mask does not replace the need for physical distancing.

The cloth face coverings recommended by the CDC are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Consequently these should be reserved for healthcare workers and first responders.

Why should I wear a cloth mask?
A cloth mask can help individuals cover a cough or sneeze; reducing the spread of germs.
A cloth mask will not prevent you from breathing in respiratory droplets which carry a virus, like COVID-19.
Some people with COVID-19 have mild to no symptoms, and may be spreading the virus unknowingly. Cloth masks could help cut down how far the virus spreads.
Cloth masks can prevent you from touching your face, and can be a visual reminder to practice social distancing.

World Authorities since 1917 have stated the Face Masks are proven to save lives. US Wings is veteran owned by 80 yr old combat wounded Sgt. David Hack. He recalls listening to stories from his Mother and Grandmother about the Spanish Flu epidemic in 1917. They recalled how Face Masks saved lives, those that did survived. We are selling our masks at wholesale prices to help our fellow man.

Fox News
According to Fox News, Researchers have found that wearing surgical masks can significantly reduce the rate of airborne COVID-19 transmission, according to a study released on Sunday. The study, conducted by a team of scientists in Hong Kong, found the rate of non-contact transmission through respiratory droplets or airborne particles dropped by as much as 75 percent when masks were used. “Universal masking at 80 [percent] adoption flattens the curve significantly more than maintaining a strict lockdown,” researchers wrote in the study.
