During the Dust Bowl (1930s-1940s), /masks were a vital tool for survival. Here are some facts: Why masks were worn: 1. Dust protection: Masks filtered out dust and debris from the air, protecting lungs from damage. 2. Respiratory health: The fine dust particles caused respiratory issues, and masks helped alleviate symptoms. 3. Infection prevention: With poor air quality, masks reduced the transmission of airborne diseases. Types of masks: 1. Cloth masks: Homemade masks made from cloth, often worn by farmers and laborers. 2. Surgical masks: Medical-grade masks used by healthcare professionals. 3. Respirator masks: More advanced masks with filters, used by those working in severely affected areas. Impact: 1. Reduced hospitalizations: Masks helped decrease respiratory-related hospitalizations. 2. Increased safety: Masks allowed people to work and travel safely during dust storms. 3. Symbolic significance: Masks became a symbol of resilience and adaptation during a challenging period.
