Before going ahead, please remember the important warnings.
It is neither for people working with or in contact with COVID-19 patients. COVID-19 patients should not use homemade face covers. All such people must wear only the specified protective gear. |

There are other safety precautions that you should always remember.
They only reduce the chances of inhaling droplets in the air from an infected person. Do not use the face cover without washing it. Do not share your face cover with anyone. Always maintain a minimum of 2 metres social distancing with everyone. Frequently wash your hands with soap for 40 seconds. |

We will now see a simple method to make a reusable face cover at home.
While making it ensure that it covers the mouth and nose completely. One should be able to tie it over the face easily. |
| Image: Show two face covers - with strings and with rubber bands + sewing machine. | Homemade face covers can be easily made with and without a sewing machine. |

|
Let us first see how to make a protective face cover with a sewing machine.
The colour of the cloth does not matter. Before making, wash the fabric well and boil it in salt water for 5 minutes. Let the cloth dry properly and then use it. |
| Image: 4 Cloth strips
Image: Scissors Image: Sewing machine |
Other items required are:
1. Four pieces of cloth strips 2. Scissors and 3. A sewing Machine |
| Image: Cutting of cloth
Image: Show and adult’s face Image: Show child’s face |
I will explain the procedure to make a protective face cover.
For adult it should be 9 inches x 7 inches For a child it should be 7 inches x 5 inches |
|

Now we will cut the strips.
For adult size face cover, cut 4 strips for tying and piping. Two pieces each of 1.5 inches x 5 inches Also two pieces of 1.5 inches x 40 inches. |
| Image: Cloth pieces
Image: Attaching the fabric to the end Image: Making pleats Image: Turn over Image: Show height of cloth from 9 inch to 5 inch. |
Attach a 1.5 inches x 5 inches strip on one end to use as piping to the fabric.
Create 3 pleats facing downward of about 1.5 inches each by folding the cloth. Turn the pleated cloth to the other side and repeat the steps for pleating. Now, the height of the cloth will be reduced from 9 inches to 5 inches. |

Secure the pleats with piping on both sides.
Take extra care to keep all pleats facing downward. Next, attach the long 40 inch strip to the top and bottom of the face cover. Once again fold both these strips three times and stitch. Your face cover is now ready to use. |
| IMAGE FROM BROCHURE: no gaps between the face cover and your face.
|
While wearing it there should be no gaps between the face cover and your face.

Never reverse the face cover for reuse and wash it thoroughly after every use.
You should not touch your face or eyes. Wash your hands thoroughly when you reach home. |

Let us now see how to make a face cover without a sewing machine.
You will need:
|
| Image: Final face cover | I will now explain the procedure to make the protective face cover. |
| Image: Folding
Image: Second fold Image: Third fold Image: Attaching rubber band Image: Attaching another rubber band |
Fold the handkerchief from one side to little above the middle of the cloth.
Now fold over the other edge to go above the first fold. Fold this again evenly from the middle. Take a rubber band and tie it on the left side of the cloth. Now tie the other side with another rubber band. Ensure that the area in the middle of the two rubber bands is big enough. This will help you to cover your mouth and nose. |
| Image: Folding
Image: Inserting Image: Final face cover |
Take one edge of the cloth on the side of the rubber band and fold over it.
Do this for both sides. Now take one fold and insert it into the other fold. Your face cover is now ready to be used. |
| Image: Rubber Band around the ear
Image: Cover well Image: No gap with arrows WHILE EDITING |
To wear this face cover just wrap each rubber band around your ears.
As mentioned earlier, ensure that the face cover fits around your mouth and nose. There should be no gap in between them. |

Follow safety precautions before wearing a protective homemade face cover.
Wash your hands properly before wearing the face cover. As soon as the face cover becomes damp or humid, switch to another face cover. After every single use of the face cover, wash it for next use. Every member in a family should have a separate face cover. |
| Image: Touching the surface of the face cover with a red cross mark

While removing, do not touch the front or any other surface of the face cover.
Remove it only with strings behind or the rubber bands. For string face cover, always untie the string below and then the string above. After removing, immediately clean your hands with soap and water for 40 seconds. You can also use 65% alcohol based hand sanitizer. |
| Image: face covers being cleaned | I will now tell you how to sanitize the face cover properly.
Please follow the method compulsorily. |
| Image: face cover washing with soap
Image: drying in sunlight |
Thoroughly wash the face cover with soap and warm water.
Dry it in hot sun for at least 5 hours. |
|

Alternately, you can use a pressure cooker to sanitize.
Put the face cover in water in a pressure cooker. Add salt and boil it for at least 10 minutes. Then, take it out and let it dry in a clean place. |
| Image: Boiling the face cover in a utensil | You can also boil the face cover in hot water for 15 minutes. |
| Image: Pressure cooker and boiling water
Image: Soap Image: Iron box |
If you do not have access to a pressure cooker or boiling water, use a soap.
Wash and clean with soap and apply heat on the face cover for 5 minutes. You may use an iron box to apply the heat. |
| Image: 2 face covers
Image: washed face covers and worn face covers |
It is recommended that you make at least two face covers.
You can wear one, while the other is washed and dried. |
|

Now, let us learn how to store the clean face covers.
Take any plastic bag, clean it thoroughly with soap and water. Let it dry properly on both the sides. Keep the extra face cover in this clean bag and seal it well. You can now use your face covers one by one for daily use. |
