Public can wear respirators in; • Occupational setting • Educational institutes • Healthcare premises • Natural disasters e.g. volcanic eruption, wildfires, dust storm, desert dust syndromes • Communicable diseases Some individuals such as patients of cardiovascular and respiratory conditions may not like wearing respirators as it gives them a sense of suffocation.
