What type of facial covering should I wear?

The CDC recommends wearing cloth coverings that cover your nose and mouth. The cloth facial coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance. CDC guidance on selection, use, and sanitation of facial coverings can be found here.
