Why Do You Need A Face Shield?

Face shields are a barrier to prevent viruses from entering your eyes, nose and mouth.
Lowers Viral Exposure.
A study shows that face shields can reduce inhaled exposure to the flu virus by 68 to 98%.
Reduces Autoinoculation.
Face shields prevent you from touching your face after contact with a contaminated surface.
Protects Workers.
Face shields should be worn with face masks by all staff working within 2 metres of others.
A 2020 meta-analysis of 13 studies showed that wearing eye protection, like face shields, resulted in a 78% reduction in infection with COVID-19, SARS, and MERS
