There I was, standing outside the Guardian store, I was waiting for my mom to buy 10 pieces of facemasks for $3, when I saw a family (a mom, 3 young kids and an amah). This family group went into the Guardian store to buy some also.
After my mom had finished purchasing the goodies, she made my little brother to wear it. Being working at the Ministry of Health, she knows how to use facemasks in a proper way (so as my dad). Back to the family before, after the mom had purchased the masks, she gave out each to her kids and the amah. At that time my mom had done making my brother to wear it, she looked upon the family. She was shocked as what she saw, because the family did not wear the masks in proper way, so without any further do, she went to them and showed them how to wear it properly.
Both my mom and I were wondering why the Guardian staffs did not show how and also why there is no any advertisement in TV on how to wear a mask; some masks need a proper way to wear them and as well as to dispose them. Thus I'm guessing this is one very minor problem which is possible to contribute more cases in Swine Flu (and many people tend to ignore this).
So once again, remember to use hand sanitiser and a mask...
Hopefully the family would not get any of this H1N1 virus. Sian ku meliat~
Anyway, stay healthy DRs (i know im being memajal right now, but hey for our own good, BUAT SAJA)
