Wear Your Face Covering Correctly (information taken from cdc.gov): 

• Wash your hands before putting on your face covering

• Put it over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin

• Try to fit it snugly against the sides of your face

• Make sure you can breathe easily

• Do not place a mask on a child younger than 2

Use the Face Covering to Protect Others:

• Wear cloth face coverings in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household (especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain)

• Don’t put the covering around your neck or up on your forehead

• Don’t touch the face covering, and, if you do, clean your hands

Take off Your Face Covering Carefully when You are Home:

• Untie the strings behind your head or stretch the ear loops

• Handle only by the ear loops or ties

• Fold outside corners together

• Place covering in the washing machine

• Wash your hands with soap and water
