The WHO has recommended wearing masks for healthy people only if they face a significant risk, for example if they are caring for a patient with COVID-19, although it recognizes that wearing the mask mask can help people not to touch their face.
WHO inapendekeza kuvaa barakoa na watu wenye afya njema ikiwa tu wako hatarini, kama vile wale wanaotunza mtu aliye na COVID-19, ingawa wamekiri pia kuwa kuvaa barakoa huweza kusaidia watu kugusa nyuso zao.
