Children wearing face masks to prevent communicable diseases: scoping review

Patricia Pinto Braga et al.

Summary: The use of face protection masks by children, in the community and at home, can help prevent communicable diseases. Children older than five can benefit from wearing masks if they are properly supervised and educated, and the masks are well adjusted to their faces. Masks show better results when combined with other measures such as physical distancing, ventilation, and hand hygiene.
