The blocking anticyclone that settled over the European part of Russia brought abnormally hot weather even to the northern regions. The air temperature is breaking records, as is, alas, the incidence of the coronavirus COVID-19.

At the same time, many complain that it is difficult for them to wear medical masks in such conditions. Lyubov Avdonina, Deputy Board of Rospotrebnadzor in Tatarstan, gave recommendations on wearing masks in the summer - both in terms of their duration and even in terms of color.

"In the summer, we recommend using masks that are light, not black, and change them more often, because they get wet faster. If under normal conditions we change masks every three hours, then in hot weather we need to change more often, take a supply of masks", - quotes the words of Lyubov Avdonina inkazan .ru.

Lyubov Avdonina recalled that masks are especially recommended in crowded places, even in the open air. She also advised to carry antiseptics in individual containers, drink more bottled water, preferably still, and avoid alcohol. Elderly people, pregnant women and those who are not vaccinated against coronavirus are better off not attending public events in hot weather.

Also, Rospotrebnadzor recommended that perishable food is eaten with caution in hot weather on the street, the risks of poisoning increase. This applies, in particular, to kebabs, salads with dressing, pies with minced meat.

At the end of May, even before the start of another outbreak of coronavirus infection, it was reported that police in Moscow every day stop up to 1.5 thousand violators of the mask regime in public transport. The department reminds that the fine for the absence of a mask and gloves is up to five thousand rubles.
