The use of masks:

• The University of Oulu recommends a face mask to be used during close contact where the safety distance of 1–2 metres cannot be implemented on campus.
• Mouth and nose protection is one way to prevent the spread of coronavirus infection.
• It is of paramount importance to continue to follow safety intervals of 1 to 2 meters whenever possible, to wash hands, cough on a sleeve or disposable handkerchief, and to avoid contact with the face.
• During practice periods and internships, the health and safety regulations of the host organization needs to be followed.
• Cloth face masks can naturally be used also outside university facilities (eg. in public transportation)
• N.B. wash the masks before using them in 60 degrees.
