With the coronavirus (COVID-19) disease being highly-contagious, wearing a mask is important especially when going out of the house to buy essential needs.
While the government has been consistently reminding the public to wear a mask to help prevent the spread of the disease, some people seem to be dismissing the consequence of not using one during this crisis.
ABS-CBN, through its “Ligtas Pilipinas sa COVID-19” advocacy, launched a new campaign called “Mask Is A Must” highlighting why #MasOkPagNakaMask. Several Kapamilya celebrities have participated in the said campaign.
Sunshine Cruz, Ara Mina, John Arcilla, Rowell Santiago, Arlene Muhlach, Yves Flores, Kim Molina, as well as Star Hunt artists Argel Saycon and Hasna Cabral shared on Instagram photos of themselves wearing masks.
“For everyone’s safety, wearing a face mask is a must. Always remember to wear one when going out of your house. Take care, stay at home and stay healthy everyone,” Sunshine Cruz wrote in her post.
“Tayo po ay magsuot ng FACE MASK, manatili sa ating tahanan, patuloy ang social distancing at laging maghugas ng kamay,” Ara Mina stated.
John Arcilla wrote: “Sa lahat ng ating mga kababayan, mas ligtas po tayo sa loob ng ating tahanan. Isuot ang ating face mask kung lalabas ng ating bahay sa mga itinakdang oras at panahon lamang. Maari tayong mahawa o makahawa na hindi natin namamalayan.”
Kim Molina stated: “Isang simpleng paalala para sa ikabubuti ng lahat. Manatili rin po tayo sa ating mga tahanan at panatilihing malinis ang ating kapaligiran. Manalig, magdasal. Kapit, Kapamilya.”
Meanwhile, Barbie Imperial and Melissa Ricks posted videos of themselves sharing with their fans how to make “do-it-yourself” or DIY washable face masks.
