Ministry of EnvironmentCorrect disposal of protective masks and gloves

RTL Today
The Environment Administration and the Ministry of Health have confirmed the correct procedure for disposing of protective items.

People who are healthy but choose to wear single-use masks and gloves as a precaution, can simply dispose of these in the rubbish bin at home or in a public bin.

However, for those who have been exposed to the virus, or are showing symptoms, the masks and gloves must be placed in a properly sealed bag before being disposed of.

The bag can then be placed in the bin as normal.
