Question

While coughing, we should always cover our nose and mouth with a

handkerchief. Justify the statement.

Answer 1

When we cough and sneeze, those droplets go into the air. It's our responsibility to cover the mouth and nose so those droplets don't go into the air. Covering coughs and sneezes and keeping hands clean can help prevent the spread of serious respiratory illnesses like influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), whooping cough, and COVID-19.
