Experts recommend wearing a face-covering indoors because they can help protect you from breathing coronavirus droplets in or out.

They can also help stop you touching your nose and mouth, which prevents viruses moving on to your hands and then being spread on to surfaces.
When do I wear it?
If you want to spend time in a room with someone you live with, or a visitor, covering your face will help to reduce the spread of the virus if you cannot be 2 metres/6 feet apart. And open a window too!
This means that you can still spend time with other people in your home. Limiting how long you are in a room with others also helps - the longer you spend together the more viruses could enter your body.
