Ever since the outbreak of the Delta variant in the country, Malaysians have been advised to double up their protection against the brutal virus by practicing double-masking. However, that alone may no longer be enough.
Malaysia's Director General of Health, better known as DG Hisham has disclosed new information that might potentially lower our risk of contracting the Delta variant. According to one of his latest tweets, "The use of face protection with double face masks can provide protection for up to 96% of Delta variants that are now dominant in the country.", he informed.
In addition to double-masking, wearing a face shield will also increase your protection against the vicious variant, as it turns out. So, if you don't currently own a face shield, now's the time to get yourself one. For your convenience, here are some of the best face shields we found on Shopee:

Even though the SOPs in our country has relaxed a little, please be careful when you do need to be in any public area to avoid the risk of contracting or spreading the virus. Lastly, get vaccinated!
