With the Corona virus outbreak rapidly becoming a global outbreak, a flash warning came from Japan. The Japanese Pediatric Association announced that it is very dangerous for children under 2 to use a mask.
The Japanese Pediatric Association warned that children under a certain age should not wear a mask.
“Because the airways of the children are very narrow, it can create difficulty in breathing, which may pose a risk of suffocation,” the agency said on the official website. Therefore, children under the age of 2 should not wear a mask. ”
The institution, which is headquartered in Japan, where about 16 thousand cases are seen, said, “The number of cases among children is very low, and children generally suffer from their families at home. There are no epidemics in schools or kindergartens. ”
