- They cover your eyes in addition to your mouth and nose; they also cover your face so stop the prospect of a respiratory droplet landing on your face which is then (for want of a better word) smeared into contact with a mucous membrane.
- They make it much harder for you to touch your face (a bit like a dog collar for humans…!).
- They offer the potential for decontamination and reuse (although disposable is probably ideal).
- They have less chance of prompting the occupational hazards of long-term wearing face masks (painful / damaged ears and nose bridges).
- With a bit of thought, you could find a way to drink a cuppa and eat a sandwich with them on (possibly).
