Your face mask protects you from more than one way that a study discovers

Masks can reduce virus viral load, reducing your coronavirus risk.


Health experts recommended covering protection against protection for many months, mainly because they can prevent the propagation of CVIV-19 from you to others. However, there has been a small confusion about the level of protection - if people who wear them against highly infectious and potentially fatal virus. However, new research is to find that the masks are actually protecting you with coronavirus, and they make it by reducing viral load, which can reduce the severity of the symptoms or prevent the virus.

Can cause a softer form of the virus

Different types of "block viruses to a different degree, but they block all the virus to enter," said Dr. Monica Gandhi, a doctor of infectious diseases from the University of California, San Francisco told theNew York Times. She added that if virus particles are passed, this would result in a softer form of the virus. This is the argument of anew paperDr. Gandhi and his colleagues wrote, ready to be published in theJournal of General Internal Medicine.

In the document, researchers used animal experiments as well as the observation during the pandemic at the conclusion that the face coatings reduce the viral load of the virus, giving their immune system plus an opportunity to fight against infection.

Earlier this year, Chinese researchers also conducted a study trying to determine how viral load can affect coronavirus infection. They used hamsters as subject, separating them into cages, some protected by surgical masks buffers. While many protected hamsters have not fallen sick, some of the less fortunate have done it as a result of "without mask" neighbors.

TheNyt Also stresses that human data support the relationship between viral load and level of infection. The data show that 40% of infected people are asymptomatic. When people wear masks, these asymptomatic cases grow. This leads the researchers to believe that, while someone can always be infected when he wears a mask, it may be with a softer form of the disease.

So hide you

Dr. Gandhi also indicates evidence in the form of cruise vessel infections. In February, before the mask is the norm, more than 80% of people infected aboard the Diamond Princess of Japan were infected with the virus and showing symptoms. However, when a ship left Argentina next month, the masks being emitted when a passenger came down with fever, the level of symptomatic cases was lower than that20 percent.

Gandhi also introduces the idea that, in addition to the self-protection and protection of the health of others, there is also an immune aspect of the flock to hide wear. If you wear a mask and you actually receive a lower viral load leading to an asymptomatic infection, we will realize a flock immunity faster - and without unnecessary hospitals and deaths.

"Exposing society at SARS-COV-2 without the unacceptable consequences of a serious illness with public masking could lead to greater immunity at the community level and slower propagation as we expect a vaccine. This Theory of viral inoculum and a mild or fascinated disease with SARS-COV -2 in the light of the masking at the level of the population shows the advantages of the mask for theIndividual (as well as others) as a pillar of the pandemic control of Covid-19, "she explains in the study.

So do you hide, others, others and the good of humanity! And be tested if you think they have coronavirus, avoid crowds (and bars and evenings of the house), practice social distance, only manage essential races, wash your hands regularly, disinfect frequently affected areas and To cross this healthy pandemic, do not miss these37 places you are most likely to catch coronavirus.
