HEALTH ADVISORY: MONKEYPOX & MASK USE
Your safety matters to us at Woodhouse.
Monkeypox is a viral infection that spreads through close contact, respiratory droplets, and contaminated objects or surfaces.
While it may not spread as easily as COVID-19, wearing a face mask remains an effective layer of protection — especially in crowded or enclosed environments.
Here’s how a mask helps:
✔️ It reduces the chance of inhaling respiratory droplets
✔️ It protects others in case you’re unknowingly infected
✔️ It reinforces your commitment to community wellness
Pair your mask with hand hygiene, distance when needed, and awareness of symptoms (such as fever, rash, or fatigue).
At Woodhouse, we believe prevention is the first act of care.
