reference to clause 33.1.g.3 states: No person is allowed to be in a public

place, use any form of public transport, or enter a public building, place or

item that covers the nose and mouth, OR another appropriate item to cover the

Scientific Quotes:

 Healthwise (17 May 2020)

Medical professionals have warned that people with

chronic asthma who use face masks, especially the surgical and clothing type,

are exposing themselves to hypoxia.

WHO (9July 2020)

Masks and face coverings reduce the speed of the

puff of air that is produced when sneezing, coughing or talking. Decreasing the

velocity of the expelled air reduces the distance that droplets are transported

into the person’s surroundings

AARP (23July 2020)

Health experts say shields appear to be very

effective at preventing infection — maybe even more effective than masks — for

someone going about regular daily activities and not in a high-risk health care

setting.Another benefit, says Amesh Adaljq M.D.: With a

mask, you may find yourself constantly adjusting it and therefore touching your

face and possibly transferring the virus from your hands, but wearing a shield

“doesn’t really put you in a position where you’re touching your face so much,

because it’s not as cumbersome to wear.”And finally, Adalja adds, “If you walk down the

sidewalk, you can find lots of masks that are just discarded there, which are

an infection control risk for other people. Whereas a face shield is something

that people can just clean themselves and reuse.”

CDC [Centres for Disease Control andPrevention] San Diego (23 July 2020)

Lauren Lek, head of school at Academy of Our Lady

of Peace, in San Diego says that face shields are better than masks for

students with learning differences, including autism spectrum disorders (ASDs),

because they allow for full visibility of facial expressions that can help them

read and understand social cues. CDC [Centres for Disease Control and

Prevention] and our local public health office confirmed that face shields

would be an acceptable alternative to face masks.

What our clients say: 

Sasha client services:

Easy Masks has a unique solution to the

compulsory wearing of masks. You often see people wearing a cloth mask around

their neck or exposing their nose or mouth because they cannot breathe or talk

naturally. This habit is exposing people to possible infection. With Easy Masks

breathing and talking is natural and the masks are comfortable to wear. You

only remove your mask when you sleep, drink or eat. This makes Easy Masks my

family’s choice for protection against infections. 

Sammy beautician:

In my work I am in close proximity to my clients.

While wearing my cloth mask clients often complained that they cannot hear me.

Now that I wear an Easy Mask I don’t have to worry about communication and my

clients and I still feel safe.

 Sipho Uber driver:

I have asthma and it is very hard to breath with

a cloth mask. Now that I wear my Easy Mask I don’t get panic attacks or

headaches. 

 Peter chef and restaurant owner:

What a great idea. I wish somebody invented this mask years ago. Since I bought the

masks for my staff they are visibly happier. It is tough to work in a kitchen

wearing a cloth mask or shield. My clients feel more comfortable because there

will be no saliva droplets in their food. I personally wear my mask to be able

to communicate properly with staff and clients.
