Dr . Ahmed

Q: What are your thoughts on social distancing?

A: Social distancing is important to stop the spread of Covid-19 because Covid-19 is a mostly aerosolized virus. Masks and social distancing are two key actions that can keep you safe.

Q: When outdoors, is it safe to social distance and not wear a mask?😷

A: If you are outdoors, it should be ok, but it is safer to wear a mask. Indoors, you should always wear a mask.

Q: Why are masks important to wear?

A: Masks protect you from droplets that are produced when someone with the virus coughs, sneezes, or talks/sings.

Q: What are the qualifications of a mask?

A: Masks have to be three layers.

Q: Why aren’t gaiters as safe as normal masks?

A: They don’t cover the bottom part of the face. There is a study that demonstrates that gaiters do not prevent spread of droplets as much as a three ply mask.


Q: Do you have anything else you would like to add about social distancing or masks?


A: Hand hygiene is important too. You should always wash your hands before you eat. There are now two promising vaccines and each works in a different way.
