Perhaps what is needed for the sake of the economy is for the state and federal government health departments to issue wearable clear plastic face shields plus plastic gloves to all employees and students so that everybody can be then directed back to work or school and thus national economic production could be "re-booted" ASAP. The opaque cloth face masks currently recommended will "break-apart" after only a few hot water washes despite costing between $3 to $8 each at pharmacies in Sydney and maybe throughout the country and should only be used for 3 to 4 hour periods before a fresh mask is needed according to advice that I have been told by health service professionals; thus most people won't be protected by them as they will likely buy & wear only one or two masks realisticaly per week if not longer, so that they are not a viable economic prospect. Thankyou,. Yours sincerely, L Karulin.
