Better use of face masks would stop the pandemic faster

More effective use of face masks and better social distancing would help the coronavirus pandemic come to a quicker end, according to UK scientists.

Researchers at the universities of Cambridge and Liverpool said control measures should therefore “increase in strength” as lockdowns across the four nations are lifted.https://get-latest.convrse.media/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walesonline.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fuk-news%2Fbetter-use-face-masks-would-20287587&cre=top&cip=4&view=web

Modelling found hand washing, social distancing and the wearing of face masks – so-called “non-spatial” measures – combined with the rollout of the vaccination programme would help keep the Covid-19 R number “constant or even reduce it” over the coming weeks.
