Eye protection might be the missing key. Eye-protective #faceshields have been proposed to prevent community transmission. A study showed 19% of health-care workers became infected wearing PPE. After introduction of face shields, no worker was infected - Professor @CollignonPeter
"I think we'll have restrictions for quite a while; you don't just have a lockdown and then stop it all together. So there will be ongoing restrictions I would think for at least a couple of months." #9Today
Eyes are an important way that we can get infected with covid. I think in addition to a masks, we should encourage essential workers to wear face shields. These protect your eyes, your face and also will help protect your mask from virus being deposited.
