OUR STORY
Australian face masks has been established in response to this challenging
time faced by the global community.
We are a small family business and have been in the textile industry,
manufacturing curtains and blinds at our local factory in Carrum Downs for
over 15 years.
Our business, like many other small businesses right now, is facing multiple
challenges to keep our workers employed.
So we wanted to do something about it.

Right now there is a huge shortage of
face masks in the country.
Current manufacturers are struggling
to keep up with the demand to supply
our healthcare industry.
The majority of masks are single use
only which requires the government to
stockpile as many as possible to
prepare.
That’s why these types of masks are
going to be very hard to come by over
the next 6 months.
This is where we come in...
We wanted to be able to do our part by
manufacturing face masks for the
general population so we can all work
together to help stop the spread of
coronavirus.
During the time of illness, it is
important to keep your respiratory
system clean.
It should be clear that your respiratory
system is the target of the infection and
that it must be kept clean and clear.

A NOTE ON VIRUS PROTECTION
FROM THE GUARDIAN:
"Wearing a face mask is certainly not an iron-clad guarantee that you
won’t get sick – viruses can also transmit through the eyes and tiny viral
particles, known as aerosols, can penetrate masks.

However, masks are effective at capturing droplets, which is a main
transmission route of coronavirus, and some studies have estimated a
roughly fivefold protection versus no barrier alone.
If you are likely to be in close contact with someone infected, a mask cuts
the chance of the disease being passed on.
If you’re showing symptoms of coronavirus, or have been diagnosed,
wearing a mask can also protect others.
So masks are crucial for health and social care workers looking after
patients and are also recommended for family members who need to care
for someone who is ill – ideally both the patient and carer should have a
mask."

HOW TO USE FACE MASK DURING THE
COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Before looking at what face mask to
use during the COVID-19 pandemic,
it is a good idea to familiarize
yourself with the symptoms.
Learning how to use a face mask
during the following pandemic could
mean the difference between
recovery and death.
It is important to use the latest
face mask, and this is what you
need.
The side effects of this type of
treatment are many.

When one's respiratory system
is infected, symptoms may
present themselves in the form
of headache, throat pain, weight
loss, shortness of breath,
blurred vision, confusion,
rashes, skin rash, mucous
retention, coughing, vomiting,
increased hunger, diarrhea,
shaking, and others.
Sudden skin temperature rises,
additional fluid build-up, fever,
breathing difficulties, severe
anaphylaxis, and other health
complications.
The use of best face mask during
the COVID-19 pandemic will
protect the respiratory system
from bacteria and viruses. These
treatments are only effective
when the immune system is
working properly.

When your immune system is
compromised by diseases, it will not
fight off infections as well as it
normally would, so infections will
become chronic.
Chronic infections can result in death if
the body is not working correctly.
It is the job of your respiratory system
to protect the cells inside it, and the
weakest part of your system is the
mouth and throat.
When this is not working properly, a
person could get exposed to infections
and other illnesses.
In addition, the respiratory system is
the final stop for all forms of the
disease.
There are many diseases that can
affect the respiratory system and if it is
compromised, it can cause death.

Those who are infected with the common cold or other viruses may be
wondering whether the use of face masks is useful in the fight against colds and
viruses.
Do you think that face masks help you protect from viral infections? If your
answer is "yes", then you should definitely try the use of face masks when you
are sick with cold symptoms.
DO FACE MASKS REALLY HELP YOU TO PROTECT FROM
VIRAL INFECTIONS

Why do face masks help you to protect against viral infections? The answer lies in the
fact that face masks help to prevent the bacteria that grow on the human face and
around the eyes from entering the respiratory system. This is because face masks
cover the nose and mouth and in turn prevent the bacteria from reaching the nose and
mouth.
It does not take a genius to figure out why face masks can help you to prevent viral
infection. You should remember that this type of protection is not for regular
protection, it is mainly for viral infection.
Viral infections are one of the most frequent causes of infectious diseases. When you
are attacked by the virus or are infected by the common cold, you get relief from the
pain and discomfort but also the chance of getting the infection.
You see, the viral infection is a specific kind of infection and can come from many
sources. There are viruses that live inside our body called microorganisms and they
cause different types of infections. Viruses can live in several places, including our
digestive system, our nose, on the surfaces of our skin and in our nose.

Most of the time, viral infections occur inside the respiratory system and sometimes
they can develop into respiratory tract infections. These are illnesses that can cause
chronic cough, fever, runny nose, chest pain, pain behind the eyes, and sore throat.
Most of the major viral infections are caused by bacteria that live in our nasal
passages, in the lungs and the stomach. The common coronavirus is just one of the
viruses that cause infectious and contagious infections.
This is why you should not hesitate to use a face mask when you feel that you have a
cold or any other infection and you want to protect yourself from having another
infection. So, what should you do when you start experiencing symptoms of a viral
infection?
Your first step should be to wash your hands thoroughly or use a good hand sanitizer.
In addition, you should remove all the surface dirt and make sure that your face is
washed thoroughly before applying any face mask.

The next step you should take is to consult
your doctor so that he can recommend
something that will boost your immune
system and protect you from any possible
infection.
When you are sick with a viral infection,
you must remain calm and don't try to treat
it with over the counter medications that
will only serve to make the infection
worse.
You should seek to find the underlying
cause of the infection and if possible,
eliminate the source of the virus.
Doing so will allow your immune system to
be stronger and can help you fight off any
future viral infections.
A viral infection can strike at any time.
There are millions of viruses out there, so
you should be prepared for anything.
You will often see a lot of viruses
circulating in your body and then the body
will get over the virus in a few days.
It does not mean that you did not get sick;
just that your body has responded to the
virus. There are also some viruses that do
not stay in your body but rather spread
from your mouth to your nose and then
onto your skin.

If you have had any type of recent contact
with a person who is having a viral
infection, you should use a face mask.
This can help to kill the virus as it
spreads throughout your body.
However, the problem is that if you have
had a viral infection recently and you are
looking to use a face mask, you may not
want to use the same one as other people
have been using.
It is best to use the reusable and
washable masks. And also, timely
disposal of masks should be done to
avoid any spread of infection among
others.
You should make sure that you read the
labels of the ingredients before you
purchase a product. Look for the
products that can prevent virus infection
spread.
It is best to use a product that contains
antiviral ingredients, as such active
ingredients can prevent further virus
infections up to a greater extent.
You need to prevent the spread of this
infection before it can ruin everything you
have worked for. Prevention is the best
cure for any infection. So wear your mask
today.

HOW TO WEAR AND REMOVE FACEMASK
FOR COVID-19 PROTECTION
Let's find out how to properly wear a facemask for COVID-19 protection.
First, you need to make sure that you are wearing the proper clothing to be
able to effectively shield your face. Using a facial shield may also help to
keep your face from getting too hot, although many of the newer facial
shields are designed to not add much heat.
Proper breathing is also essential in making sure that your eyes remain
healthy and free from infection. Make sure to wear a mask that is reusable,
breathable, and free from any allergens.

Prior to contacting the facemask,
clean your hands with a liquor based
hand rub or cleanser and water
Examine the mask for tears or gaps;
don't utilize a cover that has recently
been worn or is harmed.
At that point, distinguish within
the mask, which is typically the
white side. Spot the mask all over
covering your nose, mouth, and
jawline, ensuring that there are no
holes between your face and the
cover.
Hold the mask by the ear circles.
Spot a circle around every ear. And
to remove the mask just hold both of
the ear circles and delicately lift and
expel the facemask.
Toss the facemask in the refuse.
Clean your hands with cleanser and
water or hand sanitizer.

HOW TO CLEAN REUSABLE FACE MASKS
It is very easy to clean the reusable facemasks firstly, pick the straps, and
stretch forward to remove the mask out if not using place it in a bag and
sanitize your hands.

detergent once done air dry the masks completely before wearing it again.
Don't forget to store the masks in a cool and dry place.

FINAL THOUGHTS
Wearing a face mask will help to prevent the spread of corona and other
virus infections and also it will prevent the individual from contracting any
airborne infectious germs or bacteria.
It is very common that When someone infected coughs or takes sneezes
they could release dangerous germs into the air which may infect others
passing nearby.
The wearing of face masks has become crucial now in the Battle Against
COVID 19 and forms a part of an infection control strategy to eliminate
cross-contamination.
