Trump suggests using a scarf against coronavirus!!




President Trump has been taking tons of airtime for his slow response in handling the corona-virus outbreak. Trump made some outrageous comments about the virus. On one occasion, he said - “It will disappear, it’s like magic. It’s getting to disappear at some point .” President Trump, on Wednesday, advised that wearing a shawl on the face to stop the spread. The effectiveness of employing a scarf remains unknown. In his daily press briefings, President was asked whether the general public should be wearing masks rather than protective gear because the gear was in shortage for the health care workers.

The President responded that it wouldn’t cause much harm to the people to wear masks, but scarves might be an ideal substitute. “It doesn’t got to be a mask. It are often a shawl . What I do see people doing here is using scarves, and that i think during a certain way, a shawl is best counting on the material ,” said President Trump. However, as of now, there's no concrete evidence to support Trump’s claims that scarf may be a better alternative than face masks in protecting against corona-virus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists a number of the things like bandannas and scarves as homemade face protection units. But they have to be used only as a final resort for health care workers who are exposed to the virus when proper protection gear is out of supply. The CDC also specifies that cloth substitutes can’t be termed as personal protective equipment (PPE) due to their unknown capability of protecting the health care workers.
