    1. A study from the UK has found that a third dose of

    vaccine can provide up to 88 per cent protection against hospitalisation from infection by the Omicron variant. 2. But if we wear better-quality masks and wear them correctly, we can reduce the spread of this highly contagious virus. 3. If the infected or sick person wears a good mask, that reduces the risk to those around them, and if the uninfected person wears a mask, that reduces the total number of particles (that they inhale and therefore reduces the risk to them from the infected person. 4. Masks should be used in indoor spaces you share with other people such as the office, hospitals or doctor’s offices, wedding halls, shops, classrooms, and places of worship. 5. You should also wear your mask in crowded outdoor locations like the market or mall, and especially when taking the bus, taxi, airplane or train.
