Wearing a mask is one of the most important means of preventing respiratory infections such as pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus. Since pregnant women are in the gestation period, it is even more important for them to be well protected. If a pregnant woman is not suspected or confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus, she can choose a mask that fits her face, has a lower breathing resistance and is more comfortable to wear, for example, a protective mask with a breathing valve that effectively reduces the resistance to exhalation and the feeling of stuffiness, but she should consult a medical professional to confirm whether she is physically fit to wear the mask. In addition, wash your hands thoroughly before and after removing the mask to minimize the risk of infection. Source: Dr. Yurai
